I think you are right Bob. The referenced article in July 2006 ( and another
in July 2004) QST are both for 100w level use and would never work for legal
limit use over 1.8 to 30mhz. The RCS-4 is quite a bargain in my opinion.

Jamie -
I love the concept of homebrew, and have tried it myself with antenna
switches, but it's really hard to beat something like the Ameritron RCS-8V
or something like that.
Give that some thought before proceeding. I would never attempt a homebrew
remote antenna switch project again, given the good availability of remote
switches from a number of commercial sources.

Anyone know which handbook, if any, had plans for a 4 port homebrew coax
switch? It was controlled via the coax. Any construction articles in QST
about one?
