Yes....Find on eBay an old passive video switch like the ones made by
Dynair. (1x6 or 1x12) Not only are they designed for 75 Ohms they
terminate all unused feedlines (RG6) with a 75 ohm resistor. This is
especially important when using two wire Beverages while trying to make
the feedlines to each a multiples of a half wave (minus the VF depending
on whether or not it is RG-59 or RG-6 foam.) which puts the termination
electrically back at the feed box for better performance.

What do you use for switching your receive antennas?
I have been adapting the RG-6's F connectors, to PL-259s to use a regular
ham coax switch.
The 75 ohm (TV) type switches show a minimum frequency of 5MHz.
Is there a better solution?
