Thanks Mike for taking the time to answer to my topic. I did not know about this weakness so thanks for bringing that up. I tried the relay F-R-F-R cycle and I clearly hear the relays working (no proof that they switching though) but I am hearing a change in the static noise at the same time so I trust that the relay is working alright. Nevertheless I did connect the Pigtail with a PL to BNC adapter to the front socket. No success
What is strange is that upon pushing the tune button it randomly doesn't turn to PKT as expected.?
BTW: Switching from back to rear adds another 20 mA. So you are right: that adds up to the energy bill when doing QRP. Thanks a lot!
