    The isolation between ANT-1 and ANT-2 is about 60 dB.  The isolation between the RX-A and any of the ANT-x ports is much greater.

    The SCU has a signal overload protection relay that will disconnect the RF signal path if too much RF energy is getting to the SCU.  I doubt that 1-2W or RF is getting to the SCU.

    With the upcoming release of SmartSDR v1.5.0 you will be able to operate in Full Duplex (FDX) mode and in the software manual will be a set of equations that will provide a way to calculate the RF signal levels based on antenna isolation, preamp settings and RF power transmitted.
