Sounds like a five way antenna switcher for balanced (twin lead)
input and output, lots of ferrite beads and silicone, looks nice.
wonder if it works? g

Yep, I think you're right there Bart. Big relays tho so probably for
send and receive. My first thought after seeing all those beads was
that it was a rosary chain for praying, but I don't think they come in
shiny cases.

Yep and probably fresh out of one of the ARRL handbooks. It's a nice build.
I'd have faith in it.

This is not a good design. You need to isolate the relay control wiring
from the RF transmission lines. Because they are in the same space is
why the control wiring has all the ferrite on them. Mr. Smith would have
used opto-isolators here. Ha ha.

That sounds right. I agree. Maybe that's why it's for sale?

The advertisement read the guy does not know what to do with it.
