I was thinking it may be nice to have a tuner that could control an
external relay to switch in/out custom networks for adapting it to
site specific operating conditons.


Why even have a tuner if you are going to switch the length
of the feedline?

Because it would require only one external switch, be useful on random
lengths of antenna, probably a few more I could think of if I didnt
have to get to work.
