I built one of Jim's multi-coupler kits a couple of
months ago.  IIRC it was one of only a couple he had
left.  It's one of the best thought-out kits I've ever
built... and it works superbly.

I have been using multi-couplers made by Stridsberg
Engineering, the active 4-port versions ($185 each)
for both HF and VHF up (to 1 GHz+) and have been
extreemly satisfied. I first found out about these
when they came installed in a surveylance vehicle we
purchased years ago at an agency I used to work for.

This winter I had one of my 4 year old multi-couplers
stop working... I knew it had been blown by me doing
something stupid.  I sent it to Stridsberg for repair
and even though it was out of watantee they repaired
it... installed all new guts with an upgraded and
better protected input like their new versions... and
returned it to me with NO Charge.  They even told me I
could return my other 4 units for free upgrage too !  
You don't often see this level of service.... they are
a small firm and they do mostly Gov't contract work,
but I sure was happy they also took care of me.
