[CQ-Contest] Antenna Switch Relay Inquiry

[Mark, WT6P]

Hello all,

I am interested in building a multi-antenna switch, similar to the one in
the ARRL 2001 Handbook.  I have tried to find the relay used in the article,
but can't.

I know someone has built something like this.

Finally, the question...What contact rating should I be looking for?  I want
to build it to handle 1500 watts (future plans!).  This will NOT be hot
switched, only used with a band decoder to select antenna, then run RF
through after contact closure.  I will be driving the relay with 12vdc.

Thanks in advance for any assistance you all might lend...
