Hi Dave Thanks for the info. That should all be fine.
On the K144XV can the TX and RX be split at 144MHz? That is where I need to add the extra filtering. I presume that the second RX is still available as a separate input when using the transverter interface? The Javornik transverter has two receive converters. 73 Ian. Dave Zeph wrote: > > Jeff ....
