I would contact these guys. They are the dealer for sanwa now. They are ordering me some fhhs-2 antennas that aren't on any catalog I could find. Very nice people to deal with as well. Shipping times may take a while as I don't think they stock the odd stuff.

Good luck, I abandoned Sanwa because they have no real support. The guys you mention are interested in selling current product and have no tech support or concern.

So far they seem fine. I asked them for advice and how I could fix something and they ordered me the antennas to resolve my issue at a whopping cost of $1.00 each.

If your switch can't be cleaned and needs to be replaced I would give it a shot. Better then having a paper weight transmitter. Another option is if you can get any informTion on the switch you might want to try digikey.

i don't see any reason to jump ship yet - and if you do I am sure plenty of people here would be buyers.
