Daiwa CS-201A 2 Position Coax Switch

This thing is SOLID! Very heavy solid feel to it... reasonable footprint... would recommend!

Using as a swap between 1.25m & 2m/70cm antennas for a triband. Pics speak for themselves. Actual swr from radio to antenna, not a dummy load.

Used to use a T-Splitter that did not work well. This works great between my FTM-100 and SDRPlay with no interference between lines.

Pros? Does it’s job. Cons? I have none

Great switch with a positive click for switching antennas and being sure you’ve switched.

Switch has good positive snap action and quality connectors. Measured less than 0.1 dB insertion loss 1 - 30 MHz, no measurable effect on SWR. A little more expensive than some but I think it is worth it. Can be mounted either through the back plate using the two holes visible in the product photo (screws included) or on the back is a tab so it can be hung with one screw like a picture frame. Recommended.

High quality switch, heavy weight. Is able to handle my CW KW OK.

Good SHORTING coax switch. Contrary to some reviews here, the version of the switch I received does indeed short the center conductor of the non-selected connector (port) to the switch case, and hence to the coax shields of connected cables, and to ground if the coax switch case is grounded, as it should be in many installations.. Tech data on any of the major ham radio equipment supplier Web sites will confirm this. In many cases, this shorting is good, but may not be appropriate if this switch is used to connect one of two transmitters to an amplifier, antenna tuner, or antenna - keying a transceiver transmitter into a short circuit will be hard on your transmitter final amplifier - unless you like the hassle and cost of replacing final amp transistors :)

Poor job at isolation between the two rigs.
