I bought a Top Ten 1x6 to bring to WP2AA and it worked very well with their
band decoder. I will probably bring it to PJ4 in a few months. Be aware if
you run RTTY, this box has a 1000 watt limit. N3RD offers fantastic
technical support and I am sure that he will assist you in setting this up.
However, for SO2R it seems to me that using one of the many 2X6 relay boxes
is so much simpler than using three different relay boxes.

I am reconfiguring my SO2R antenna switching using the Top Ten 1 x 6
switches (2) and 1 x 2 switches (6) in the classic configuration. By any
chance does anyone have any ideas as far as a different physical layout that
might minimize the number of coax jumpers required (12)? I don't physically
have the 1 x 6's in hand yet so it's a little hard to see what might go
together with barrels and/or right angle connectors, etc. I am aware of the
layout not utilizing the 1 x 6 switches but I am not going that way.
Thanks and Merry Christmas,
Mike W9RE
