Hi Sandeep Sir, You use simple manually rotary switch, you even do not use relay on input/output. Have you some experience to blow up the PA transistor due to forget to switch to correct selected band and transmit ? How to avoid such possibilities ? I see many system in the internet to select proper lpf automatically. Your picture tell me complete story.
