It sounds like you are on the right track. You will need two band decoders to convert from Elecraft's (same as Yaesu's) four digit band code to individual signals for each ham band. Decoders are available from Top Ten Devices, Array Solutions, Unified Microsystems, and perhaps others.
If you put the Six-Pak controller within reach of the spotter station, and add a manual/auto switch to that channel of the Six-Pak, the spotter will be able to select unusual antenna combinations. Otherwise, the spotter can just change bands on the radio, and the BPF's and antennas will follow automatically.
