I use the Alpha Digital Antenna Selector with my Alpha 87a and Icom 756Pro
- works absolutely great! The relay box is an Array Solutions
product. Between these two pieces of hardware, you're capable of doing the
SO2R thing easily. I used the Array solutions relay box in Alaska for
years, with no failure at all, despite incredible cold (-40) , wind (125
mph) and snow (20 feet).
