[Antennas] Re: Need wattmeter with multiple remote sensors

I have no doubt that choosing this route would provide an excellent
performing system but the cost would be staggering.  I was thinking
that I could use one of the old Heath SWR/Watt Meter kits that had a
sensor that can be used either local or remote and then simply make
several copies of the sensor.  The desired sensor could then be
selected through a multi-position wafer switch.  This may turn out to
be a nice project yet.  I think that it will be great to have one
meter that can be easily switched to each of my rigs/antennas.
