[Towertalk] rcs8v as U/L/B stack switch

For those that like graphics, scroll down a bit on the VE3GK page and there is a little schematic of the circuit Dave just described in his post. Use a non-shorting switch. This circuit works well with the RCS8V. I used it in NC for my 4/4 20M array and I know many other TT'ers have used this circuit as well. 

There are a couple NCJ articles on phasing with coax and remote switches. N4SA's "coax tricks" vol 8, issue 5, page 7 and K8CC's stacking/switching artical in vol 16 issue 1, page 17. I believe Dave offered circuits for 3 antennas and perhaps a bip/bop arrangement for two yagis. I could be losing it on the latter though. Getting old and all...
