Array Solutions WX0B had the BPF6 which has been
discontinued (http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/841), 
I have two unused BPF6 filters here. They came with 
complete individual test data and a lifetime guarentee 
from Array Solutions. 

Array Solutions replaced this product with their FM-6 switch 
matrix combined with six individual W3NQN band filters and 
12 cables.

I'm currently packaging up this solution for use
at PJ2T Station #2. It's not nearly as compact as the old
BPF6. A photo of the parts I'm assembling (FM-6, six 
W3NQN filters, IBS-1 band decoder (also discontinued)), 
less RF cables, can be seen at:

Each of the red caps is an SO-239 (26 in all) to be
interconnected externally.
