I think, in view of the number of relays i would need, the voltages involved, and the price of the things I may have to abandon remote controlling the antenna usage changeover. It may give me much needed impetus to erect a dedicated and much higher LF aerial! I am going to speak with a friend of a friend who is into these big model helicopter things. he's apparently devised a means of lifting a line into a branch and releasing it, all done in close up on camera, from the ground. He may be willing to hook a line over one of my big trees now the leaves are nearly gone. In return for beer and pies! The big Russian changeover switch Vinny DL6II posted about looks interesting, I may e-mail Dominic, F1FRV about where he got it from how much it was, and how it works. > This one is quite handy but not suitable for several kV. They do > seem to be expensive but I have 3. > Hughš M0DSZ -- Best regards, Chris 2E0ILY mailto:chris@chriswilson.tv
