Description
The AS-603LR set is an automatic antenna switch for three radios and six antennas. There are two independent boxes, one for the antenna switch that is near the antennas, AS-61RL, and another box with the Push Buttons for the selection of the antennas and the Radios, RC-603RL, that is next to the Radio.
The connection between the two boxes is only made by the RF cable (RG-58 or RG-213). This cable takes RF, power and the necessary commands for the perfect operation of this system. The RC-603RL also allows the insertion of a linear amplifier or a wattmeter, or both. In this way these equipments will always be connected with the Radio and the antenna selected. The operation is individual, which means that only the selected radio will have access to the antennas. Unused antennas and radios are switched to ground. To facilitate the operation, the RC-601RL also has a third internal switch that switches the Send commands and the Com port to the selected Radio.
The RC-603RL also has a Controller for two rotators, consisting of a three-digit display and an encoder to select the azimuth. All commands to the rotor are sent over RF cable to the AS-61RL which transfers them to the rotators power supply RPS-1.
Communication
The AS-603LR set supports communication with the following radios:
Icom (CI-V), Kenwood (RS-232), Elecraft K3 (RS-232), Yaesu (RS-232), Flex (RS-232) or any other Radio that uses one of these communication protocols.
