Hello:
 
At the 2001 Dayton soiree, I purchased a relay from Chet, KE4ISN, for my Drake L-7 amplfier.  I haven't needed to install it yet, I merely wanted to have a spare on hand because they are difficult to obtain.  In a later exchange of emails, Chet wrote:
 
"...I sold a few at Dayton.  As far as I know I have the only stock of Drake relays.  I sold a bunch of them, and none of them failed.  I guarantee if it is bad I will send you a new one, and I don't think Drake ever did that!  I replaced two of them in amps I have rebuilt for friends.  A L-4 and a L-7; still running over four years.  I also rebuild the diode boards for the Drake amps.  More after-market parts to come in the future..."
 
Chet may still have some relays available.  You can contact him via [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 
Good luck,
 
Jack, N4YIC
