Howdie, I am looking into build a panel that would distribute 8 to 10 antennae to 5 to 6 stations in a any-to-any setup to handle 1kw. Prefer lockout( if a sophisticated design), but even manual swit

If you are talking HF, legal limit, many open frame relays work just fine. I run SO2R with a commercial 6 pack. 6 antennas and two rigs. I only run one station at a time so high isolation isn't a pro
Agree, any to any gives lots of relays no matter how you do it. but you really don't need vacuum relays, most of the common switch boxes today just used regular frame relays. If you want to keep cost
I don't know that this will help. It shows a 2x6 switch arrangement. I was thinking it was from K1XM but it is actually from KK1L. http://home.comcast.net/~kk1l/kk1l_2x6switch/switch_page.html 73, La
The TopTen relay boxes have for years used $2 DC power relays, and I recall they said they had been tested at up to 3:1 SWR. In their A/B switches, they use two of these in series for better isolatio

Unless you are hot switching, vacuum relays are definitely not necessary. Open frame relays work fine and they even seem to tolerate lightning strikes at my station. John KK9A Howdie, I am looking in

Thank you all for the inputs. I think we now have a good deal of data to start an in-depth investigation. 73s krish w4vku On 1/18/2014 2:16 PM, Jim Lux wrote: On 1/18/14 4:07 AM, David Robbins wrote:
