protection, yes or no???

Yes.

The relay has 1-amp contacts, which should handle any reasonable amount of power induced into the sub receiver's antenna. (It's rated the same as the relay we use on the KXV3's RX ANT IN jack.) I wouldn't put a KW into a transmit antenna that's in the near field of the receiving antenna, or is oriented so that it can couple more than a few watts into it.

It activates automatically, yes?

Yes.


In ordinary SSB chat, the COR delay u mention will be a real
problem or a minor problem?

There's a possibility that other stations might hear the effect if the COR relay is rapidly cutting in and out, in any operating mode. If you hear it doing this, you should take some action to prevent it (switch the sub RX to the shared RF path, or reduce power, or move the antenna).

There may also be a warning flashed on the VFO B display when the COR is being activated. That's on the firmware list.
