There's some confusion about selecting antennas in the new RSP2 API.

mir_sdr_RSPII_AntennaControl() selects between SMA A and SMA B.

mir_sdr_AmPortSelect() selects between the HI-Z antenna and ... ?

How are the above support to work in conjunction? Need schematics! The antennas must be multiplexed in some way, i.e 75Ω AM port connected to the SMA connectors, or something..? An example selecting SMA A, SMA B and HI-Z appreciated. Preferable in the next version of the API docs.

Also, there's a typo on page 38; "mir_sdr_RSPII_ANTENNA_A -> Antenna B"?!

Hello Mikael,

AntennaControl selects between A and B

AmPortSelect selects between HiZ (1) and whatever port is selected using AntennaControl (0)

When you switch between HiZ and the other ports use the Reinit with the mir_sdr_CHANGE_AM_PORT reason.

We'll fix the typo, thanks.

Best regards,
