Front/Rear Antenna Connection


 

Is there a difference in the 817's current consumption between
selection of front or rear antenna?

Tnx/73,

Is there a difference in the 817's current consumption between
selection of front or rear antenna?
Yes, approximately 20-30 mA, as a result of the current needed for the
non-latching relay used for the rear ant connector.

Yes Randy, there is about 10ma more current draw when
using the rear connector. The relay needs to be held
closed for the rear connector(not a latching relay).

This is about as much as my Wilderness SST draws in TOTAL on receive.

I guess that's progress!

OK OK - I'm only jealous.
