Automatic Antenna Switch for Flex 6xxx

We have developed a 1 x 4 Automatic Antenna Switch (AAS) for use in the shack to control either a Flex 6xxx or an Amp connected to a Flex 6xxx.  This provides automatic antenna selection based on parameters set up in the Flex USB screen.  Switching  can be accomplished by frequency range or band or a combination of both.  The AAS comes complete with USB cable for the Flex and requires a 12VDC source at less than 1 amp.  There are AAS's in beta test now and will be shipping shortly.  When the Flex is turned off, all antenna ports are grounded automatically.  The AAS is rated at full legal limit.  It will be priced around $279 plus shipping.  Contact ed@w2ph.com for preliminary details and availability Ed W2PH

    The Auto Antenna Switch has been replaced by the Universal Antenna Switch effective July 1, 2020. The UAS allows automatic antenna control from the Flex 6xxx series, most Kenwoods, Yaesu, ICOM and Elecraft radios. You can see more at https://wwww.w2ph.com.
