There is nothing wrong with that bandswitch at that power and a good thing about the Load cap is that it has several wiper surfaces to handle the current unlike what is in most commercial amps. The s

One area where home built amplifiers can be substantially better than commercial ones is ease of repair. Many commercial amps are designed to be compact. Even Collins and Alpha can be bears to repair

It might handle the current but the spacing is too small for a proper voltage rating. It should be about four inches in diameter and if bought new should cost between $300-$400. Check out these: http

Why not use relays appropriate for the switching duty? Then the bandswitch can be just about anything or even remotely controlled. Plus you can locate the switch where it's convenient to operate inst
