The recent reference to KK1L's switch is interesting. He uses 3 SPDT 
relays per "antenna port", which makes it fail safe, at least as far as 
not connecting two radios together accidentally.

There's also an HP ap note, AN332, which I don't think is online, which 
is a good summary of all sorts of rf switching. I see it's not marked 
with a copyright, so maybe I can put it online. I'll write to Agilent 
and ask.
