I have received a number of email questions asking how I switch my Beverage 
wires in the field.

Here is a video that shows the design of my cascaded 2 relay high isolation 4 
relay switch box, as well as my latest design that uses 1:1 binocular core 
"braid breaker” transformers to replace my large type 31 toroids on the RG-6 
lines.  This is much more economical and easier to set up in the field.

I show how my switch boxes are deployed in the field and share some ideas about 
laying out the RG-6 feed lines on the forest floor.
