| Hi,
I am using two FT1000MP’s for SO2R and would like to use the band output from 
the radios to 
automatically electronically switch all antennas, amps and filters every time I 
change bands rather
than the tiring/inefficient manual “switching by hand” that I have been using 
for the past 26 years.
I would appreciate hearing from SO2R ops what amps, antenna switches, “boxes” 
and /or
other devices that they use to accomplish this fully automatic switching which 
would be necessary
on both phone and cw.  Also, if there is a particular contest logging program 
that you have found
to be especially useful and well-integrated with all of this switching, please 
tell me as well.
Reliability and durability are of paramount importance to me as I do not want 
failures
occurring due to RF, cheap components and/or questionable or short-sighted 
design issues.
I would appreciate any thoughts and experiences with products, vendors and 
station design 
either on or off the reflector.
Thanks in advance for your help.
