Select antenna for RX2

Post by GW4NNO »

I know this is a really simple question but I'm sorry I can't find a simple answer to it anywhere. So, how do I select the antenna to use on RX2 The antenna selection form just seems to list receive transmit antennas for each band but this only seems to select for RX!.

The Antenna Control menu only works on ADC1. ADC1 can be connected to RX1 or RX2. The ADC2 has its own antenna connector, called RX2. This ADC can also be connected to either RX2 or RX1. These settings can be changed in the ADC menu.
DDC2 is RX1, DDC3 ist RX2 on my ANAN-7000 Thetis settings.

See this old post for more detail: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2644

It is accurate except for DDC assignments, which are similar but different in Thetis. However, the nice thing about Thetis is the ADC setup screen shows you how they are assigned, something PowerSDR never did.
