Specific link to the
"RF Tech M-50-8 Antenna Multicoupler"
<http://www.testequipmentcanada.com/M-50-8.html>

Price is $220 canadian (about $150 US)
Here is the writeup:

"The multicoupler permits simultaneous operation of up to 8 receivers from 
a common antenna.
  In commercial applications it allows the expansion of a radio plant where 
space does not  permit the addition of additional antennas.
  In an amateur radio application, it permits up to 8 receivers to be 
connected to a single  antenna without complicated switching or messy cabling.
  All outputs are internally terminated, thus unused outputs do not require 
termination
  Multicouplers can also be connected in series or parallel for expanded 
applications

                Specifications:

                     10 kHz to 300 MHz nominal frequency range
                     Isolation >23 dB port - port
                     Noise Figure 2.0 dB 50 ohm terminated
                     2nd & 3rd Order Intercepts 45 dB & 42 dB
                     typical gain +1 dB
                     50 Ohm BNC input protected
                     8 isolated BNC outputs
                     Housed in a rugged steel cabinet for stability and
