I am trying to come up with a simple circuit design that can time-control the control voltages (~3.5V) of a SPDT coaxial switch such as this one:

The objective is simple - to have the switch go switch from RFin1 to RFin2 and vice versa every N seconds (in magnitude of 10s of secs). Unfortunately I am not that knowledge in circuit design so I have no come up with a solid idea yet. I was thinking of implementing a simple LM555 circuit. Would that work? What about a binary/bcd counter? The biggest concern I have is how to implement and synchronize the two control voltages.
