Hi Phil - I have used RF1J relays on my 80m K8UR-style array.
These are rated 3.6 KV at 10A. Nice thing about them is they are
latching relays (requiring a 24VDC pulse), so you don't need to
keep power applied. They are $9 each from Allen Bond of Max-gain
Systems. I've ordered stuff from him several times - always prompt
and reliable. You can see a wide assortment of relays at good
prices at http://www.mgs4u.com/relay.htm.
