The 6 way switches  from the BC375 TU units are available from Fair Radio 
in Lima, OH. They are 1p 6way, and are a whopping$3.95 each, 10 for $32! 
There was an article in CQ some years ago on ganging two of them, although 
anyone with the slightest degree of mechanical ability could find ways to 
do it.. A small amount of work is involved in ganging them: they can 
handle lots of amps, and a good 3kV, even though Fair Radio describe them 
as being for '100watts.' Admittedly, the original radio (BC375) was 100 
watts - input - I doubt that  a pair of 211s would give 100watts of RF at 
even 7MHz. However, it was a REAL radio, in that it glowed nicely in the 
dark!
