When doing demo stations with more than 1 HF Tx on different bands (or with a
nearby ham), QRM between stations is quite normal, even with the high Q tuned
circuit of an ATU.
Here is one method to remove most of the problem from the aerial lead. (from a
system built up years ago for 2 FT101s by G0SYR & revisited for more modern
rigs.)

It uses switchable "Teed in series tuned traps" (notch) that are only in
circuit on Rx. If the transceivers have a transverting loop through ports, then
the circuit is quite simple, otherwise a relay operated by the PTT is needed as
well.
This device also stops the Rx safety lamps (if fitted) or F/Es from blowing up.
THE TRAP
It is only connected in Rx mode, so there is no high voltages, but good quality
components & layout in a sold metal box are needed to give the good Q & deep
reject notch on the 50ê line.
