Beverage switching box - Sharing beverage antennas with this switch boxes is possible. This article describes a 6-position remote antenna switch for Beverage antennas on 3 bands (160m, 80m, 40m). It allows selecting one of 6 antennas for each band without affecting other receivers. The system uses a control box with a rotary switch and a separate splitting box with bandpass filters for each band.
