I'd like to redirect this discussion to what is be desired for an 

external antenna / rig switching add-on box for the K3/KPA500 and/or 

KAT500.  This question may have been missed in my original posting (below).

 

>From that posting:

 

A much better solution for those needing more than two auto-selected

antennas is to use an external relay switch box, controlled by the

radio. This has the advantage of getting the cables, clutter, and

switching network off the desktop and either under the table or outside.

 

There are certainly a number of external antenna switches out there that

can do this, but if we offered something that was tightly integrated

with the K3 (and KPA500/KAT500) as a product, what features would be

desirable? (Number of antennas, rigs inputs, switching options etc.)
