I'm looking for either a rotary relay (another term?) or some other
component which does a similar function...
Basically, it has to:
1) switch a connection to one of multiple lines (maybe max of 8 or 16 circuits)
2) switch on pulses or, preferably, by presenting it a binary # and have it
    automatically connect to that circuit.
3) have contacts that can handle ~50V, 1A
4) BE CHEAP! <$10  (I'd guess it'll have to be used/surplus parts)

If possible, a source for the part would be really nice...

Thanks
