[TowerTalk] Location of remote antenna switch

[J.Hector Garcia M]

Craig:

if you will have all the antennas  over the mast, you can install the  ant
switch    above the  top of your tower  around 1-2 fts.  and you will run
one coax cable  and control cable  for the switch  to made the  loop  , one
feed line  reduce  loss and  save money, other optional mounting possition
will use more  coax . , you can also connect  inv v antennas and no much
problem to connect and short  pig tails needed, if something fail or you
want to test, easy to remplace if contamination is present.

i hope this give you a clear idea how i have here my  remote switch.
