Yes. Take a look at the Beverage photos linked from www.w0btu.com. Near the 
bottom are my Beverage transformer boxes.

One Beverage has the switching arrangement with a single run of RG-6, but the 
other has no relays like you want. If you can't get the info you need by 
zooming 
in on the photos, I'll be happy to help. :-)

Subject: Topband: 2 wire beverage question

Has anyone built a two wire beverage simply fed with two lengths of RG-6
instead of the usual switching arrangement in the feed end box?  The
arrangement appears in most of the literature since the earliest days, but I
don't think I've ever heard of anyone doing it that way.  At this stage
however, I've got more RG-6 than I have inclination to build a switch box,
bias T, etc, plus the fact that I already have a switch box in the shack to
take the two coaxes.  Advice appreciated.
