| Ameritron's Remote Coax Switch lets you remotely switch
up to eight HF antennas -- so you can replace 8 coax feedlines with a
single coax. Eliminate a tangle of troublesome coax and have a simple
and near installation -- with just a single coax feedline!
The RCS-10 consists of two units -- the weatherproof switching b ox
that mounts on your tower or mast and the control unit that's placed at
your operating station.
