Hi,

One, two or three antenna outputs makes no difference to me either. I use an inexpensive 6-way MFJ switch remotely where the cables from my wire antennas come down in the woods behind the house and a single low-loss coax to the house. I currently use all 6 ports. The control is with a 100' CAT5 cable and a matvhing rotary switch also by MFJ. I don't mind the manual switching. Works for me and has at least 3 CNY winters on it. I am ooking forward to see the details on the KAT500.

I've had a DX Engineering remote switch mounted on the tower that has operated without failure for over 5 years.  One coax line into the shack to another switch that places the coax at the rig of choice.  Easy and a pleasure to operate.
