DX Engineering Key Line Combiner

DX Engineering Key Line Combiner – DXE-3RIGKEYLINE is another handy gadget that can take the ground-on-transmit amplifier keying lines from up to three transceivers or other devices and connect them to one amplifier or accessory. All four connectors are female RCA phono.

After we came out with the DXE-KEYLINE-3 for one radio to key an amp and two other accessories, then the requests for this DXE-3RIGKEYLINE combiner came in. It really isn't surprising that many hams have multiple transceivers but only one amplifier. So, while a coax switch handles the RF, now the DXE-3RIG-KEYLINE handles the PTT keying from three radios to one amplifier. We also have a two-input, two-output combiner-splitter DXE-KEYLINE-DUAL, if that fills your needs.

Each keying input of this device is guarded with a separate 45V 2A Schottky diode, providing ground-on-transmit isolation between each rig keying line. Therefore, this combiner will keep the load or voltage of any one device from affecting the others. This device is passive, meaning that it requires no power to function. It is not a transistor buffer and it has no relays.

The DX Engineering Transceiver Key Line Combiner DXE-3RIGKEYLINE allows two or three ground-on-transmit keying lines inputs to key this unit's single output. It's another handy device that can be used in lots of ham shacks and it's a great gift item for the Amateur Radio operator who has everything… except one of these gems!
