Re: [Elecraft] KRC2 - More than one antenna per band? Aux outputs?

Nice photos, I am green with Envy. This is what I was trying to imply by pretending there is a trasnverter so you can have more than one setting per band, but as you appear to have one, why not just use the LP remote for all of this? Mike -- View this message in context:

Mike, Ok on the transverter angle, I understand now. I have exhausted the LP-Remote's 16 relays for other control functions (selecting receive antennas, powering on the K3, turning stuff on and off). One option was to continue a past discussion with Larry (N8LP) about an expansion board, which

Jack et al, Thank you for your replies regarding the KRC2. I may have missed it in the discussion, but I don't recall anyone indicating how to control the AUX outputs REMOTELY (using the F-Keys won't help me). My station is located 80 miles away from me, I would need to be able to do this via

The KRC2 in its standard configuration can easily select multiple antennas. When a new band is indicated by the radio, the KRC2 will select that band. The user can then select other bands through the F keys, sequentially moving up or down the antenna selectors. It is also possible to

Dana, The answer is - 'yes' or 'maybe'. You can use 'relay logic' to obtain many combinations with the KRC2. You can easily select up to 3 antennas per band using the AC1, AC2, and AC3 outputs. Using additional decoding logic of the ACx outputs can yield up to 8 combinations (but that

Apart from using the aux outputs, which is probably the best method, you might also be able to fool the K3 that there are two 40m bands by pretending there is a transverter with a 40m IF that needs 100W of drive, has a 0MHz LO and is connected to the main antenna. Then use the KRC2 transverter
