Beware some of these are made using pieces of copper looking or brass
looking / plated or painted junk. Put them in the weather for 4 weeks and
they will rust. Beware of the rivets that hold them together, they rust too
and we know what happens to two dis-similar metals. Yikes!

Won't do you much good as they are out of production...
Wonder how hard it would be to homebrew something like this?
I just did an internet search for "knife switch, double pole, double
throw"
and found several possible suppliers. Some sources provide items for
science
projects. Others are commercial suppliers to industrial users.
Having not used any of these items I cannot make any claims about
availability, quality, or suitability for antenna applications, but some
of
the units look like they might do the trick.
