M/2 with FLEX 6600 and FLEX 6400

VA3XDX

Hi,

Our club has a flex 6600 and flex 6400. We currently use the 6600 in a M/S capacity. We would like to setup the two radios in a M/2 capacity.

So assuming both radios are connected to tribanders. The run station is on 20m the s&p station is on 10m.

How do we protect the radio when someone accidentally moves to 20m while the the other station is transmitting on 20m. Is there a way to network the two flex radios? So that you can't go to a band that is currently.being used by the other flex?

Any routing ideas would be appreciated.

To the best of my knowledge, there is no solution to do that sort of blocking without some sort of external tools, possibly NodeRed.

Operators actually need to pay attention of where the other station is before moving and thanks to N1MM you can always see the other station VFO if requeired.

And, if you do require hardware interlocks, those features are built into the radio and only require 2 RCA cables and a minor configuration in SmartSDR.

Others may have some better ideas.
