Will be using 3 old tube radios a 3 Window meter and a 400 watt amp. Will using an antenna switch affect swr-output or any adverse effects at all?
 

Guess that depends on how you intend to use that antenna switch. If done correctly, it shouldn't have any 'sizable' adverse effects. That assumes that the switch is in good shape and designed to do what you want it to do.

Get a good quality switch that will handle the power you are planning to run.If the switch is of good quality there shouldnt be any measurable difference in swr readings

I wouldnt go to the local truckstop to get a switch,to me personally the quality would be in question.I would get one from a ham radio retailer.I would think you would have less trouble down the road
