Rick - That's a latching relay. It's bi-stable with no power applied. Basically it is magnetically balanced such that when you apply power you "flip" the relay to the other state. Magnetics then hold it in that state. It may be a touch one to find. So you have two choices:
1. Use a non-latching relay. I dont know what the ramifications are here. I assume they wanted the relay to "remember" it's state with power off for a reason. So you would need to determine how well a non-latcher would work for you. 2. Use another latching relay. Definitely won't plug-in to the same spot. If it's tight and/or unsightly to replace you might be able to install a regular P&B relay in that socket and drive that relay with a latcher that is installed in a hidden location. 73, Mark W1EOF > -----Original Message----- > From: Rick Brashear [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, June 01, 2006 12:29 PM > To: Discussion of AM Radio > Subject: Re: [AMRadio] Relay > > > Thanks Geoff... unfortunately, I had looked on those sites and nothing > turned up for me either.
