    I have built SJ2W stuff and it is very well made. I have two SO2R switches and both came as PCBs from qro.cz. They were easy to make too, but beware of the parts cost! NOt sure how much tax you get hit for importing from EU to US!

    I'd suggest getting a sense of the total cost of a solution built on that board, then go to array Solutions ( https://www.arraysolutions.com/antennas-switching ) and review their offerings. I think they are pretty competitive. Ken, N2VIP

    I manufacture a 1 x 4 antenna relay that is controlled directly off the USB port of the Flex.  It is relatively inexpensive and can handle legal limit.  Allows you to connect the Flex to an amp and have the output of the amp switched to one of 4 antennas automatically.  Ed@w2ph.com

    Bret, I just purchased one of KK1L's relay boards and about ready to start populating it. Are you running SO2R ?  Are you finding the 60+ db of isolation is enough ?
