The
AS-61WL is an automatic antenna switch for three radios
and six antennas. There are two independent boxes, one
for the antenna switch that is near the antennas, AS-61WL,
and another box with the Push Buttons for the selection
of the antennas and the Radios, RC-603WL that is next
to the Radio. The connection between the two boxes is
only made with the RF cable (RG-58 or RG-213). This cable
takes RF, power and the necessary commands for the perfect
operation of this system. The RC-603WL also allows the
insertion of a linear amplifier or a wattmeter, or both.
In this way these equipments will always be connected
with the Radio and the antenna selected. The operation
is individual, which means that only the selected radio
will have access to the antennas. Unused antennas are
automatically short circuited.
To facilitate the operation, the RC-601WL also has a third
internal switch that switches the Send commands and the
Com port to the selected Radio.
The
AS-61WL / RC-603WL supports communication with the following
radios:
Icom (CI-V), Kenwood (RS-232), Elecraft K3 (RS-232), Yaesu
(RS-232) or any other Radio that uses one of these communication
protocols.
