Do you have the mod that allows for swapping the antenna inputs? This
will help with achieving nulls.


I haven't yet had the guts to attempt this, simple as it is. To say I
am klutz with a soldering iron would be understating it badly. Also,
it sounds as though it is useful to use coax cable internally to
provide the electrical hookups, and I have not yet figured out the
optimum way to do this (a *good* picture would help immensely!).


Sorry that I haven't gotten back sooner to you on this. I'm in the
process of getting a digicam capable of taking very good macro photos
and will be able to email you photos of the mod to swap inputs.


Otherwise, it sounds like it requires just a simple DPDT toggle or
similar switch mounted somewhere, with the two antenna leads attached
to each pole at one end, criss - crossed to the other end, and with the
two main/aux leads connected to the middle posts respectively - is that
about it? There is no need to do any ground connections, since the
whole chassis is grounded...


That's sums it up nicely!


How hard can that be? ;-)


You've mentioned your soldering skills but how well do you handle a
drill? ;-)
