[Antennas] High Power RF Relays?

Subject: [Antennas] High Power RF Relays?

I use Finder type 40. 31 S  PCB mounting relays in my homebrew remote
antenna switches..( http://www.iol.ie/~bravo/remote.htm  ) They're
ideal....Silver nickel contacts..
good isolation between the switching circuit and the coil bobbin, and
they'll handle 2kW
of RF into a 3:1 SWR.
 good luck es 73
