      Be careful when using a switch arrangement which has two radios sourcing one or more antennas. The isolation rating of the switch is very important in such cases because RF during transmit on one radio is physically very close to the receive input of another radio. Depending on power levels the receive front end could be overloaded and burn out. Check the isolation specifications of the switch and highest power output you are planning.
