[TowerTalk] Relays for antenna switching?

Does anyone have wisdom to share on selecting relays for home-brew legal
limit remote antenna switches?  In particular, can anyone explain to me what
an RF Relay is, as opposed to the common Power Relay?

Is there any reason that I can't use an off-the-shelf 30 amp power relay to
switch RF?

Thanks!
