[TowerTalk] Remote switch

[john at kk9a.com]

I was referring to the StackMatch in N2IC's post, not a general  
antenna relay. A Stackmatch is generally used to split the TX/RX of a  
single radio to one, two or three Yagis while maintaining a 50 ohm  
input impedance.

Why are you limiting the consideration to receive?  If you have more
than one rig (i.e., transmitter) in operation with remote switches
controlling which antenna goes to which rig, how happy would you be with
45 dB isolation (or less than 30 DB in the case of the RCS-4)? Even 100
watts relative to a dBm is 50 dB.
