Craig:
if you will have all the antennas over the mast, you can install the ant
switch above the top of your tower around 1-2 fts. and you will run
one coax cable and control cable for the switch to made the loop , one
feed line reduce loss and save money, other optional mounting possition
will use more coax . , you can also connect inv v antennas and no much
problem to connect and short pig tails needed, if something fail or you
want to test, easy to remplace if contamination is present.
i hope this give you a clear idea how i have here my remote switch.
