I have the Green Heron Wireless antenna switch for my beverage system.
Works very fine although 375ft is non trivial so you may need an improved
antenna system for the wireless signal.  Mine is only 75ft from the station
through one wall.

 

Also, on the cable, I found the critters loved the petroleum infused cable
that is often the style for bulk multi conductor wire at cheap prices.  The
un-infused cables have completely eliminated that problem.  So I run wired
control on all my systems except for the beverages.

 

The "wireless" that actually uses the coax has the major limitation of not
being SO2R compatible as there is no direct link between a single coax and
the switch.  So they are a non-starter for me.
