K3 Sub Rx antenna input choices

[Ken Kopp-3]

Hi Stan,

There's one way to tell ... give it a try. (:-))

I would expect any mismatch would be easily detected by
careful listening or watching the s-meter while tuned to a
stable signal while you plugged in one and then the other.

I think it would be difficult to find a "Y" TMP, however.
Female TMP's are scarce.  To make my adapter cable
I salvaged a PC mount female from a Motorola UHF exciter
board.

73! Ken

I'm thinking of a relay at that point to switch between them. But
then I guess there goes your isolation afforded by the BNC.
Would a Y cable affect the input Z enough to affect the gain?

I purchased my sub-receiver for one specific use ... to monitor
6M for band openings while the radio might tuned to another
