Daiwa CS-201A 2 Position Coax Switch

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

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

I am a ham radio operator and have a long wire antenna in my back yard. It works great with my ham radio. I bought this to switch the antenna to my very old Heathkit Most Accurate Clock. The clock no longer resets to the correct time with just a little antenna, it needed a stronger signal. At first I would swap the PL259 antenna connectors manually. During the day the big antenna went to the ham radio, overnight I put the big antenna to the clock. I got tired of moving the connectors. So I use this switch, one click - antenna moved. . NOTE: if doing this with a transmitter such as my ham radio, BE SURE to have the antenna switched to the radio, I do this prior to even powering up my ham radio. . The switch has been in use for several weeks and the click to switch feels positive and has never failed. Its a quality device from a brand that I have used for decades without ever getting a dud.

One excellent switch, very strong detents, it feels as firm as a rock! Heavy die-cast aluminum body feels like a tank!

The coax switch is good for set up different antenna. I am satisfied with the service and shipping.

Great switchbox, real quality at an affordable price

It seemed like a really nice heavy duty switch. But it was coax type N and I wanted a coax type F. Didnt pay attention to the type when I ordered.

Ive owned several coax switches since becoming a radio amateur operator in 1974. I bought my first Daiwa switches several years ago and I have been pleased with their heavy construction and dependable operation. The first Daiwa two position switch is still in service working with a Daiwa four position switch (see attached picture). The four position switch selects the radio (two HF radios, including one with a VHF coax connector, and one VHF mobile) and the two position switch selects the antenna (the outside position is controlled by a five position Ameritron antenna selector and an inside two meter magnet mount antenna. The inside two meter antenna is almost exclusively used as a dummy load in case I inadvertently transmit when the outside HF/VHF antennas are off line. In case of thunder storms, I still physically disconnect the outside coax. I live on the Cumberland Plateau in east central Tennessee, which is characterized by unusually violent thunder storms. I routinely run a 180 watt VHF amplifier and 600 watt HF amplifier, both well within the capabilities of the switches. The second Daiwa two position switch was purchased for another room to switch an indoor multiband antenna with an outside VHF/UHF antenna. It precludes me from having to disconnect the coax when the radio is not in use. Again, I normally disconnect the outside coax at the connector during lightning storms. I have followed this practice for decades and have yet to loose a radio due to a lightning strike.

This thing is WAY more heavy duty than I need, but it does the job perfectly. I basically just use it to turn off our ISP signal to our modem to control screen time in our household. Took a couple of adaptors for coaxial cable, but after that, I was off to the races. Drives the kids NUTS. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

So strong, weighs so much. Manufactured to last, great connections. I want to buy 4-5 more.
