An antenna that is built for a higher frequency

the first radiating element - reduced radiation as one

Hi
My experience with many panels have found the ones we
standardised on was the ZETRON 38 series.
We did this with our 19 repeaters purely because of
less glitches and they too have a relay option for a
given tone eg: external link PTT or light to be
switched on etc-or an onite voice recorder
the PTT line until you can add a
simple CAPACITOR electrolitic -normalli\y on the input

The second way is to allow the transmitter to ptt with
