Great little project John! Should be the answer to this problem. You may want to contact Steve at RCS about offering these for him to sell with his DSS, and xover switches.
That smt board doesn't look too challenging to build. The unavailability of the relays though is going to be a problem!

I can't imagine it being a big challenge to build, all the parts are pretty good sized and pretty well spaced. It's really getting harder to find thru-hole parts for some functions nowadays, so SMT is really going to be the norm.

I did order a few of the thru-hole relays from Mouser, and I might get a prototype run of the thru-hole version once I have the SMT version working. The thru-hole is the only game in town unless you want to wait for the relays to be available again.
