There are auto switchers, but a manual switch will work fine.

I use this one between two HF rigs.

I certainly agree, an antenna switch is the simplest answer. A word of caution though. I think a switch that grounds/shorts the inactive position(s) would be a very good idea. That would keep most, not all just 'most', of any signal from getting into the unused receiver when the other radio is transmitting. Turning the un-used radio off would be an even better suggestion. No sense in transmitting straight into one from the other, does nasty things to the receiving receiver.

Doc is absolutely right on this. This will prevent the unused rig's receive front end from being damaged by rf overload.

I hope this is a good translation. Google's language tools are usually pretty reliable.

HUH? oh you said rfoverload not rfoverlord. Yeah use a grounding switch but don't forget to ground it though.
