[hpsdr] Genesis LPC5 vs NT-Electronics T/R switch?

[Dick Faust]

Very interesting circuit for a reasonable price.  If one looks at Atlas 
or the Genesis GPA10 [or any of the other LPF designs] the circuit could 
be modified to filter the Pennywhistle on any 3 bands [equally 
applicable to Softrocks as well] if a few different caps and turns are 
applied.

The relays appear to be very similar to the ones used in the NT antenna 
switch [see links below] and Atlas.

Even if the LPF's are not stuffed, it is difficult to find an antenna 
switch of this type at any price.  I need to think about a purchase too 
while waiting for Atlas.
