"Mike Noel" wrote in message ... A 'cheap' way to share an antenna with a hand-held when the official com goes belly up is to cut the coax where it is easily accessible during flight (like under the instrument panel near your knees) and installing the appropriate coax couplers to rejoin the cable (something like a double female bnc coupler and a couple of male bnc connectors on the two coax ends). You can connect an adapter coax between the hand held and the antenna side of the split coax for using the handheld in an emergency. One down side to such an arrangement is that you obviously don't want to accidentally plug your handheld into the wrong side of the split coax and transmit into the expensive com radio. And wasn't it Jim at RST who wrote an article in one of the homebuilt magazines about a panel plug in for attaching a hand-held to the com antenna? -- Best Regards, Mike http://photoshow.comcast.net/mikenoel It is not work that kills men; it is worry. Worry is rust upon the blade. "Jim Stewart" wrote in message .. . Is there a product that will allow me to share one antenna with 2 COM radios or a COM and a handheld? |
