1-lambda loop gap voltage

Seems to me, that relay should always be closed during operation
from the base feedpoint so there will essentially be zero volts
across the contacts. Since the relay should not be switched
with the key down, your question seems irrelevant.
To be more precise, the loop would remain intact, but I want to
disconnect the coax from the inactive source, and I am looking for a
way to do this using a relay near the source (or at the shack). The
power would the full legal power.
Any idea ?
Hi Pierre
I submit that you will have no luck with your plan to run the two
transmission lines from the antenna to the shack where the switch chooses
which one to use. The unused line will present an impedance across the
"gap" which is a function of the length of the line.
Correct me if I am wrong.
