Hi Richard.

I bought a Tri-plexer for mine so that I can put my Comet GP15 on the 6 
meter, 2 meter, and 70 cm connectors without constantly swapping the 
coax.  It works very nicely that way.

As others have no doubt commented, there isn't any way to put both 2 meters 
and 70 cm on one connector without buying something like this but quite 
honestly, there is so little insertion loss, I never noticed the difference 
and it is definitely worth the convenience.  There was a side benefit in my 
case.  I had trouble with energy from my 6 meter halo getting into 2 meters 
with an extreme amount of RF--potentially strong enough to take a receiver 
front end out.  Passing it through a splitter like that was one real easy 
way to eliminate the 6 meter energy from getting back into the 2 meter section.

73, de Lou K2LKK
