I am looking for a relay that can safely switch a circuit which is carrying 144 MHz at about 50 watts.  I am building a device that allows my new 2 meter preamp that sits at the base of my satellite antenna to be normally switched out of the circuit (and bypassed) until I am listening only on 2 meters and want to switch it in.  Happy to pay for it and pick it up if you have one available.  Thanks for your consideration.

I have 2 brand new never used HVC-3  12 volt vacuum relays in my inventory of stuff.
They are SPDT rated at @25 amps. You can find the full spec sheet
on line. They are about and 1.25 tall and maybe the size of a quarter around.
If you think they will work let me know.
