Do commercial coaxial relays for t/r use short the rx line when in tx? or do they leave it float?
No. I would recommend that you use a second low power relay to put 50R loads across both in and out of your preamp.
Also, should the 2M output on the diplexer for desense be terminated? or left open.
I think most people leave it open but personally, I would terminate it with a 50R resistor.
