Update to previous report.
Extremely reliable. I have had mine 5 yrs now and it has not failed to switch once! This is a contest station and the RCAS-8 gets lots of use.
Very impressive.

I have evaluated all the antenna switches currently on the market (May 2001), Comtek RCAS-8 IS BY FAR THE BEST VALUE. I also own a SIXPACK & STACKMATCH, but it is not fair to have these in the same class as the Comtek. They are designed for different purposes. IF YOU NEED A STRAIGHT AHEAD REMOTE ANTENNA SWITCH--YOU CAN'T GO WRONG WITH THE COMTEK (in my opinion). Top quality form & function all the way. IF YOU WANT TO DO RAPID FIRE CONTEST WORK, OR PHASE/STACK ANTENNAE GO WITH THE SIXPACK & STACKMATCH. Make sure you research features as these are three very different products. Each is the best in their field (in my opinion, of course!) 73 de KB8XU
