The Johnson 250-39 and B&W 380 T/R switches both had a certain amount of
"suck-out" but they did protect tube receivers.
I had both (still do) and preferred the Johnson.

Note the warning about use with solid-state equipment, however.

I would like to see something like this again today in solid state. I think this would be the ticket for what you need. I haven’t looked, so I don’t know if anyone is marketing such a device.
