Andrew,
Simplest way is to use relay or switch to add a 1/2 wavelenght of coax to 
one antenna phasing line. This will shift the phase by 180 degrees added to 
the 90 degree phase shift will reverse the rotation. You can also swap the 
phasing line connections  to the antennas, but this requires more contacts. 
For 70 cm and shorter wavelengths a coax type of relay should be used for 
best performance.
