I agree the HOFI HOSCHA remote switch is great. We sold a dozen back in the
early and mid 1990's at Electronic Switch. Mr. HOFI is hard to deal with so
you must get them direct. He did have a web page that also includes the
remains of the Fritzel antennas. HOFI also makes excellent 5 position
manual coax switches (I have the PL259 and N versions). There is NO
crosstalk with them as there is with the cheaper alpha delta and the like
switches! However
buying a switch with lightening protection is a joke....no metter what is
advertised its cannot be done!!!!
