[Flexradio] Antenna Config Modes Questions

[Clay W7CE]

Tim's suggestion is what I've done at my station.  I too would have prefered 
setting up RX2 as the 6M receiver.  However, since the preamp is connected 
to the RX1 in/out ports, you need to use RX1 for 6M.  Unfortunately, using 
RX2 for the HF bands is not as convenient as RX1.

I know of no easy way to connect a 6M preamp to RX2, but may eventually bite 
the bullet and install my own external relays.  That way I can be monitoring 
50.125 while operating HF on RX1.

73,
Clay  W7CE
