    DC voltage on RX antenna

    UPDATE::: I'm planning to use SO239/PL259 connectors for all of the external connections, which means that the metal ammo cans will share the radio ground. It's a good thing that I checked the grounding on the solar system. The solar controller is positive ground, so everything between the panel and the battery output will need to be isolated from the radio ground. That means that I will NOT be able to put the solar controller in the box with the duplexer. Instead, I will mount the controller on the panel and run the battery line from the controller directly to the can which contains the battery (12aH SLA), so I will no longer need to put DC voltage on the RX cable. Sure, I could use a TRS (T and R only) or XLR connector, but then I need a dedicated cable type (believe it or not, cabling is the part that I planned to keep simple from the start - it's all using the same connector).

  2. I highly doubt they would make a big deal about it. Mostly because I think most people who buy their gear have no idea what they would even be talking about. If I were to guess, I would suspect that it will be quietly released as either V3 or MXT400a (etc.) and just update the bulleted feature list. Of course... just a WAG.

  5. Hi, Keith here. Im in Washougal Wa. Just East across the river from Portland Or . The good side of the river. You will do best if you can mount your antenna in the center of a 61/2 in of metal that is well grounded
