CX210A CX-210A CX210-A Original Diamond Heavy Duty Wideband Coax Switch

I am using this to switch antennas coming from the OC-705 to an HF antenna to a VHF/UHF antenna. It has a nice feel and is not too large. Works great in my application.

This unit is very heavy for its size and feels solid. I have one antenna fed to two different radios (one handheld, one base station) and its working great so far. Ive noticed no RF bleed-through at all, the radios seem to be completely isolated from the antenna when the switch is feeding the other radio. The only thing I wish were different about it is that the switching mechanism could have more of a snap-action to it. The green switch knob, and I assume the internal switch, can stop halfway if you dont pay attention and make sure you fully move the knob the other way. I bought this from a source other than Amazon, so this review wont show up as a verified purchase, but Im happy with it and Im satisfied. Its a bit pricey for what it is, but like I said, its very heavy and solid, and feels pretty much bomb-proof. It should last for years of daily use.

You get what you pay for. These are good quality switches that dont fail and that isolate very well. Using two radios with one antenna? I have never had a problem with that configuration. Isolation is a must for the protection of the radios. So, I will pay it to make it happen.

Original product and packaging. 100 recomended.

I havent done any engineering-level tests to assess loss but this item is very well-made and working great for what I was hoping for it.

Well built, quality product

built strong, dependable positive switching. zr2

If you need to switch a single antenna between two transmitters, dont trust a cheaper antenna switch to protect your radio. This switch provide the isolation to protect the second radio while the first is in transmit. I have used this switch from 160 meters to 70 cm in the 100 watt range without failure for many years. Im ordering a second switch now so I will have one for another set of radios.

This thing is solid! Well built and heavy. Love it

As advertised and looks good to boot.
