Well, if you had two specific radios you were concerned about, try
this:
1) Tune both radios to the same station.
2) Put the antenna on rx 1 only and write down the S-meter
reading.
3) Put the antenna on rx 2 only and write down the S-meter
reading.
4) Connect the antenna to both receivers and see if the S- meter
reading is significantly different than in steps 2 and 3 above.
Let us know what you find out.
Good idea. This may also motivate me to wind that matching transformer
I've had plans for. I found a nice fat toroidal core for it in a
junked microwave.
I will have to look through the past postings to see what the
consensus was for the ratio. Nine to one? four and a half to one?
