WOULD IT BE POSSIBLE TO USE A SUITABLE DUPLEXER TO CONNECT AN HF ANTENNA AND A VHF ANTENNA TO MY ICOM IC 705? AND ANY SUGGESTIONS WHICH ONE TO BUY REGARDS DAVID.

Yes, I do just that with mine. The Duplexer I use is a Comet cf-360 but any will do. Just make sure it has the right frequency splits for what you need.

THANK YOU VERY MUTCH I WILL ORDER ONE TODAY REGARDS DAVID.

WOULD A THE DIAMOND MX 1.6-30/140-150/400-460 BE SUITABLE AS IT COVERS MORE BANDS REGARDS DAVID.

Hi Dave

What antenna's do you want to connect?

The Diamond MX72 will give you 1.6 to 150 MHz on one port and 400 to 460 on the other.
So if one antenna you use covers top band to 2 meters and you have a separate antenna for 70cm then it will work for you.

If you want to connect a 2 and 70 collinear to one port it won't work for you.

Paul

HI THANK YOU I WAS NOT SURE AS I HAVE AN HF ALL BAND AND A 2 AND 70 WHITE STICK THANKS AGAIN REGARDS DAVID.

YOU NEED SOME thing like the Comet CF 530 which covers 1.3 to 90 and 125 to 470

Or the Comet CF-706 that is 1.3 to 57 and 75 to 550

THANK YOU REGARDS DAVID.

A point of interest, if you push the key on the left of the keyboard marked "caps lock" your posts would be very much easier to read, and it may avoid inaccurate replies.

THE REASON I USE CAPS IS THAT I HAVE FALLING EYESIGHT REGARDS DAVID.

Ctrl & + may help..

Evan

Sorry to hear about the eyesight, how ever with respect, using caps doesn't make the replies any easier to read, which are the part you want to read, but does make it hard for the people you want to read it.

As Evan suggested ctrl + will enlarge everything on the browser, and there are other settings that will enlarge all text on a PC or phone.
Maybe worth a look to make your computer use easier all round if you don't already use them.

OK I will have a play around with my pc regards david.

I have the Comet CF-706N
Not what I thought it was.
Instruction show its for TWO rigs
and not for the Icom 705.
One digit difference my mistake.

73
Keith .

That has N type connectors, that is what the N shows

If it shows two rigs and one antenna, it will work with one rig and two antennas (as long as the frequencies match)

Why would it not work on the 705 if the frequencies are correct?
