Link operates with antenna up

Here is a link that operates without lowering the antenna. It is based on a slide switch. The trick here is to make an operating slide with hard stops such that no excessive stress is put on the switch handle itself. A length of mason’s line hangs down and allows operation of the link with a gentle tug. The operator could easily be extended with two lines of different color hanging down, so that link could be opened / closed at will. [image]
