I can buy that and will count myself lucky -- run a similar switch here and haven't had a problem, but it occurs to me that I don't run a lot of power and the fact that I rarely transmit, well... RatsNest of switches here swaps an AVQ HF vertical and a 6 meter beam between the IC-7000 and a TS-570 by turning knobs. Been lucky, probably.

Life's been pretty good here this year. I finally decided I'm "done" with real work after 38+ years and cashed my final paycheck in August. My BP is just now coming down to a level of thinking about hobbies and stuff. Some of the old radio gear is starting to appear back on the desk.

Hope everybody here is fine as frog's hair, too. And what are the bands like? :)
