>That is why I have two Drakes:  one stock with a 123 MHz IF, and one
modified for 435 MHz IF.  They are fed from my preamp via a "coax-T" and
two 7/4 wavelength RG-11 jumpers so both can run simultaneously.  I have
separate RG-6 lines to the shack.  Although I haven't done it, I could hook
up both my FT-847 and FT-817 and RX both at once.  My DEM 144/1268 Tx
converter made this necessary to operate mode-LS.
