When it detects RF power on the RTX input (max. 100 W), the antenna is connected to the RTX input and the RX output (receiver input) is grounded to protect the receiver. Instead of using RF power detection to switch the antenna, a <strong>control input<\/strong> allows the key \/ keyer or the PTT line to switch the antenna. <strong>It works in all modes<\/strong>: CW, AM, SSB, FM and digital. Individually tested up to VHF. The audio switch is available for both the receiver audio and the transceiver audio. The ASW-2 <strong>is compatible with any<\/strong> receiver and any HF transceiver or HF transmitter.<\/p>\n<h3>Technical specifications<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>50\u03a9 impedance.<\/li>\n<li>Protection with gas discharge tubes on the ANTENNA connector.<\/li>\n<li>Frequency range: DC \u2013 160 MHz.<\/li>\n<li>Power supply: 13.8 Vdc, 200 mA.<\/li>\n<li>Maximum power on the RTX input: 100 W.<\/li>\n<li>RF detection threshold: &lt; 10 mW (tested from 1.8 MHz to 30 MHz).<\/li>\n<li>Switching time: &lt; 20 ms.
