For these reasons, I would have looked elsewhere for a multiplexer. I
doubt I would purchase the one you have because I've borne his nasty
attitude on this newsgroup which would preclude me buying his products

traits.

Sorry to hear you feel that way Larry. I am not a typical salesman, I am a
technical guy that happens to sell his products to make a living. I also
like to help people out and get carried away sometimes in doing that. That
also means that I can react a bit offensive when someone explains something
to someone else and I feel the explanation is in error. But what drives me
to be like this is honesty. So if I offended you somehow, I apologize. I
just notice that you can also get carried away sometimes.... ;-)

Being on the subject, I would like to switch to salesmode again: :-) If you
want to try our multiplexers to see if they solve your interference problem,
I can arrange for you to get one on trial. If you're not happy with it, you
may return it and get a refund. Just let me know.

The shielded pair balanced line is a fine
idea.....It's just too bad most of them say to hell with it and invent
radiating systems like SeaTalk or Fastnet with unbalanced lines,
unshielded cheap plastic connectors and every place a cable hooks to a
device you're using unshielded screw terminals or cheap plastic
connectors, none of which fit anything else. How stupid they ALL are.

An unshielded multiplexer CAN be quiet on HF if designed properly. Ours also
has an unshielded box and unshielden screw terminals. But they work fine and
do not interfere on HF, nor are they susceptible to HF. We have tested them
according to IEC945, which goes up to 10V/m. No problem.
