Default antenna coupler question

Of course, if you have only one antenna, to be used for a navigation
and other reciever and for a transmitter on the same band, you would
not want tx power sent to the rx.

The presence of a tx key line in the cable is a dead givaway. When the
tx is keyed, the loran is disconnected by a sharing relay.

This is old tech, right?

Since Loran-C operates on 100 KHz, it is highly unlikely that the
antenna would be shared with any transmitter.
