1) Two LP on different bands with different antennas - use http://microham.com/contents/en-us/d75.html or http://quad.ru/production/switchSO2R.php The latter has better port isolation. WX0B six pack has much poorer port isolation then the above mentioned two switches). For home brew switch project try here http://www.sj2w.se/contest/?page_id=1547 and here http://kk1l.com/kk1l_2x6switch/

2) Two LP on different bands using the same multiband antenna - in addition to the abobe switch you will need triplexer and band pass filters. The best combo one is by VA6AM (ex UN7LG) http://un7lg.shawwebspace.ca/blog/post/triplexer_with_bpfs_combo_unit/ There are also W2NQN filters (good), UA4CC filters http://quad.ru/production/bpf.php (very good), RA6LBS triplexer http://quad.ru/production/bpf.php, There are also INRAD and DUNESTAR triplexers but VA6AM seems to be the best (see here http://un7lg.shawwebspace.ca/blog/post/high_quality_200_watts_hf_triple)
VA6AM has got all the info for building home brew triplexer and filters.
5B5AGN has the info for building BPF here http://ac0c.com/main/page_so2r_5b4agn_bpf_modules.html Also a lot of (but not complete) info can be found here http://www.k8nd.com/Radio/SO2R/SO2R_Products.htm

One somewhat expensive solution is to use a triplexer and then feed each
bands coax into a 2x6 relay box such as a SixPak. The relay box makes it
physically impossible for both radios to connect on the same band. The
triplexer will allow you to operate on two bands simultaneously with using
the Cushcraft beam using band pass filters.

Hola,

I'm planning to operate M2 LP, the oncoming contest season.
I do have two WX0B passbands filters from my previous SO2R setup.

-Only two radios will be used.
and
- Very simple antennas setup on a city lot:
Log periodic Cushcraft ASL-2020
Vertical tribander Force13 VR-3
Twin Slopper Alpha-delta DX-A

Is there any summary related to options available for locking devices to
prevent two radios to operate in the same band? I do not want to have burned
front ends.
Preferably,  I would like to build it.

I appreciate the feedback
