[WRTC2006] referees

[Marijan Miletic', S56A]

Please find enclosed YT1NT schematics for TX interlock of two FT-1000.  This 
is one afternoon Radio Shack project!

DPDT relay should be used to swap both antennas A and B.  Three 18 Ohms 
resistors in star config might be used for RX antenna sharing.

Randy, always remembering how you "discovered" the simplicity of FSK :-) 
You are not alone...
