Coax rotary switch

There are tons of microwave-quality, multi-GHz electrically-operated
multipole switches for switching wideband 50-ohm signals. You'd think
there would be comparable manually-operated coaxial switches, but I
can't find one. Does anybody know of a source? I want to manually
switch a sampling scope trigger input in a test set.

I guess I could wire up a power supply and a rotary switch and a coax
relay, grumble.

Thanks,

John

These guys have some with "manual override":

They are also "baseball style", whatever that means.

The ones I remember were made by Waters.
