1. Yes there are diplexers and even triplexers (HF,VHF,UHF) and they are
much less expensive than a good sized hunk of low loss coax. I have a
diplexer here rated at 800 watts on 2meters & 500 watts on 430 MHz. I have
no idea now what it cost, but it was not terribly expensive. certainly less
than 100 ft of lmr400.
