Back to the original problem. I am pretty sure this is setting somewhere. I have discovered that diversity works fine on 40 meters, but not on 20 and 15. On 40, if I am on diversity and I use and external coax switch on antenna 1 and I switch out (disconnect) the antenna using the external switch, the signal disappears in one ear. If I do the same thing on 20 or 15, the signal disappears from both ears. Any ideas?
