Har, har...more jokes, I see. There is a marvelous solution to the lack 
of a second antenna port. It is the so-called "Armstrong" method of 
changing cables: you unscrew one PL259 and screw another in. If you'd 
rather have a "device," then there are excellent, grounding, shielded, 
coax switches to be had on eBay for $20.

The Elecraft ATU are excellent automatic tuners with a remarkable 
capacity to match source to load. No one is forcing the purchase of 
~$300 ATUs. for any other purpose than that. ...and if you examine some 
of the high-end external tuners, many have a "featured" antenna switch, 
complete with additional coax connectors on the rear.

For a "real" feature, how about a Peltier cooler and reservoir for beer? 
The "hot" end could be attached to the PA heat sink (but then the PA 
becomes a ~$500 "feature" for cooling beer).
