try the Potter and Brumfield RKS-5DW-12 (SPDT) (My DX Eng 6 way box uses
these). Only $8 here in Canada. Somewhat cheaper ($2.50 here) was the
Aromat JS1E-12v, also SPDT. They are small, sealed and run on 12 v tho
other voltages available.  Have used them extensively in many HB
switches and no failures in our m/m setup with a variety of amps (inc
Henry 5-K) and on all bands, etc.
