RCS-4 Remote Coax Switch RCS-4 Remote Coax Switch
| The Ameritron RCS-4 is a remote controlled coax switch that selects one of four outputs by supplying all control voltages through the coax. The elimination of control cables gives your a fast, neat and inexpensive installation with only one coaxial line for four antennas. |
| You get two units -- the switching box that can be tower, mast or wall mounted and the control console that is located at your operating station. |
| The attractive indoor console has bright LED antenna selector indicators. A steel enclosure provides 100% shielding to prevent RFI and TVI. Switching time is 50 ms. SO-239 connectors provide reliable connections. |
| The weatherproof switching box uses three heavy duty 10 ampere contact relays on a rugged G-10 fiberglass circuit board. Quality components are used throughout the entire unit to ensure maximum life for the sometimes difficult-to-reach switching box. |
| The RCS-4 operates from 120 Vac or RCS-4X for 220/240 Vac power sources or RCS-4LX with lighting protection and allows safe operation with 14 volts control voltage. Frequencies from 1.8 through 30 MHz are covered by this excellent station accessory. Handles 1500 watts continuous. |
