Entering simple aerial switching data
In this example aerial 2 ("ANT ") will be programmed for
the frequency range of 10 kHz ~ 30 MHz so that aerial 1
("ANT ") will operate by default on frequencies between
30 MHz and 2600 MHz.

Entering complex aerial switching data
It is suggested that complex aerial switching arrangements
be written down first so that a clear picture of the required
programming can be established, for example:

In this example all four aerials have been used as if the
optional AS5000 were in use, complex programming is
still possible using the standard two aerial inputs "ANT "

programming... can you spot them?... read on...
Note: If the AS5000 optional switching unit is not in use,
programming of ANT 3 & ANT 4 will result in ANT 1 being
used in their place. In no specific programming is made
