I think that he best bang for the buck for an antenna switch is the RCS-8V
Ameritron 5 position switch which uses a control box on 110 and sends a low
voltage current up a remote line to the switch point on your tower. It is
cheap (about $139) and works well. I use two of them and have for years!
I use regular light weight rotor control cable. The switch grounds the
antennas not in use when you select a particular switch.
The wireless Ameritron is just more lossey and I dont recommend it unless
you can't run a cable.
Good luck!
