Topband: 75 ohm coax switch

[Art Snapper]

Thanks everone for the ideas. I hadn't thought of the Dynair video switch.
Access to useful information is why I joined this group - and haven't been
disappointed.

Tom, receive switching will be in the shack. I have 4 antennas on the
mechanical switch now, but anticipate 6 before winter or divorce. :)
