I think you can make your own easily using a breadboard and a relay socket. 73, Bob WW3QB Dale - The original relay runs from the +250 VDC bus through the 6EV7 to ground. The relay is a P&B R10-Y4-E3-2.5k and is available from Mouser and Digikey and ... This is the same relay that is used in the later T-4X(any) and TR-4XC transmitters. Drake used to offer a small PC board with a relay socket and some pins to spread out the connections. The Drake board is no longer available, but I do have an artwork for it. A list member built up a small adapter out of aluminum (could be PC board material) that worked out well. He wired directly to the relay socket contacts, which are very tight, and don't forget that lovely Drake wire insulation that melts at approximately 80 degrees!!. Apparently his hands are much steadier than mine! :-) He is planning to document 'soon'. -- 73, Garey - K4OAH St Charles, IL Drake 2-B, 2-C/2-NT, 4-A, 4-B, C-Line and TR-4/C Service Supplement CDs <www.k4oah.com> [email protected] wrote: > Just bought the T-4x and have not looked at it yet.
