Has anyone built the front end saver by KD9SV or the OK1RR version which uses 
12 volt reed relays.
 
I am attempting to build the 12v version on veroboard and have the following 
query, when the unit is supplied with 12v relays 1  2 are energised, when the 
PTT is operated relays 2  3 are energised basically relay 2 remains energised 
at all times, is this the correct sequence of operation?
 
thanks Rodger/GM3JOB

Rodger,

I built several of them for my station as same as for our local contest
club station and all works like champ. (Martin's version)

State nr. 1
QSK T/R is floating
Re1 - closed
Re2 - open
Re3 - open
In this case ANT port is connected to RX input port and AMP port is
floating. 

State T/R is grounded
Re1 - open
Re2 - closed
Re3 - closed
In this case ANT port is floating, RX input port is grounded and AMP
port is grounded too. 

Hope it helps. 

73 - Petr, ok1rp
