Hi Jim I doubt if you could find a relay that wouldn't arc over with the several kV at the top of the 80m antenna.
Also, how would you get the control power to the relay? Personally, I would just make a Trap using a good 200pF doorknob capacitor. Roger G3YRO ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rather than use a trap at the top of an 80m vertical to transition to a 160 inverted L has anyone tried a vacuum relay or even two in series at 1500w to handle the highvoltage when on 80m?
