...you gotta get the resulting arc off of those relay contacts, otherwise, bye-bye relay. I found this out the hard way, when I didn't put some sort of capacitor across the relay contacts of a PTT modification on one of my Viking II's. Didn't take long for 600v @ 180mA to eat those contacts alive! -- Driving your AM Rig without a scope, is like driving your car at night, without headlights.
