Bob,

The "tap switch" out of a BC-375 is perfect for this application, you 
can get them still from Fair Radio  
http://www.fairradio.com/catalog.php?mode=viewitem&item=4490:4487:4488:4489:4491  
Pay no attention to the "100 watt rating" as these are about the most 
conservatively rated switches around.  They have very beefy contacts and 
I have used several of these including a couple in my triple 4CX800 
amplifier and in the antenna tuner I use with my Johnson Desk KW.  They 
have been in service about 5 years with no problem.
