I have a Flex-1500 and it pretty much works like that, and even has a separate
WWV band button.
I like to listen to SW and the way it is now I have to do a cleanup when I'm
done.

I have to agree with the crimping of PP connectors and in Crimping in general.
It's my understanding that PP need the ability to flex a little to function
properly.Crimp tools seem expensive at first, but they are cheap once you
realize the ease of use.
I tried soldering PP in the past and they

I ordered the sub receiver and in the conversation with Elecraft I was informed
that it is good idea to build a device that would short the dedicated RX
antenna to ground to protect it during transmit.
The simple way would be a relay but I'd rather not hear a relay click with each
transmission.
