You need a means of distributing all antennas among 2 radios, such as the WX0B
Six-Pak.
You need two band decoders, such as W9XT, for the BPFs/Six-Pak.

Joe, this is a tough question to answer. Hardware requirements are
driven by several things.
I was lucky and found a nice used Microham micro keyer 2r+ for less than
half of new. I really like it as it's very powerful (and trust me I am
no expert on the subject, I'm still learning). The
The biggest challenge for me is antenna switching. I run tribanders

Probably the best is the YCCC SO2R Box. It's a club project, sold as a
kit. Reasonably easy to build, lots of soldering, but no SMT. 5-6 hours
by the time you make the cables. They've done a half dozen
