Hamplus AS-603WL Automatic Remote HF + VHF 6 x 3 Antenna Switches provide a new level of affordable convenience. This amazingly intelligent, three-transceiver interfaceable dual-relay smart control communicates wirelessly with a six port remote antenna relay via the coaxial cable. This upgraded AS-603WL Smart Control Console, with a new black finish, controls the AS-61WL weatherproof outdoor relay box with no control cable required. Select any one of three radios to connect or bypass the single amplifier I/O in the shack. Supporting one antenna connected to one radio at a time, manual or automatic selections of antenna and radio are confirmed with illuminated pushbuttons. Transceivers interfaced with optional cables provide frequency data for memorized automatic antenna selections. Interface cables are available for Elecraft, Icom, Kenwood and Yaesu transceivers which support frequency data for specific antenna selections by band segment. The AS-603AL also features an RS-232 serial port for PC controlled remote operation.

The Hamplus AS-603WL Black system operates from 1.5 to 150 MHz and handles up to 3,000 watts PEP under 1.5:1 SWR. The back panel of the AS-603WL console include SO-239/UHF Female connectors all three radios, an In/Out pair to use one linear amplifier, wattmeter, or both, and the telemetry and RF combined output to the AS-61WL.
