Actually, I see this thread has come up before. There is a 2 RX selector schematic already in the files section: <http://f1.grp.yahoofs.com/v1/gFn7SNgwCe4RPSRof5FBmjjh2ZJxixJ8p13-b_J0M3Mhalzd88-HZ4QDQeR3zGonWvawWBupWv9CJaIioqtvcvA/2%20RX%20selector%20schematic.png> Although using CMOS gates as audio amps might work, I'm skeptical of their performance. Since they weren't designed for linear operation, they may be prone to significant distortion. Bob NO6B
