Figure 2 - Basic Receive Antenna Installation 

 
The DX Engineering Receiver Guard is installed between 
the receive antenna (in this example, the 

DXE-BFS-1

 

Beverage Antenna) and the transceiver’s RX ANT IN 
connection (receive antenna input). On the ICOM IC-7600, 
press and hold the ANT selector until 1/R is displayed on the 
screen as the selected antenna. This will connect the 
transceiver’s receive input to the Receiver Guard and the 
Beverage antenna. Consult your transceiver manual 
regarding the use of RX OUT and RX IN connections.
