The relay should drop out after a second or so, depending upon the size of the R/C combination. If it dosen't , either the relay is hanging up for some reason or the R/C combo is wrong for the desired time. Also, check the input voltage to the R/C combo. I don't have the paperwork in front of me and I can't recall what the viltage should be.
BE CAREFUL in there! 73, John, W4AWM -----Original Message----- From: Woody <ko4...@gmail.com> To: Drakelist@zerobeat.net Sent: Thu, Mar 24, 2011 10:59 am Subject: [Drakelist] L4B (Harbach Soft Start) Hello again, I installed the Harbach soft key, and power supply refurbish kit and also the soft start, it all works great except for the soft start which does not kick in as it should. You do not hear the click as you should and the 25 ohm 25 watt resistor gets very hot as a matter of fact we left it on too long and popped the resistor, I replaced it with a new one and it is still heating up, I think the relay is bad from the factory, we checked and triple checked the wiring and it is exactly like his diagram. I don't know what else it could be. Any thoughts?? Thanks Again Woody (KO4BG) _______________________________________________ rakelist mailing list rakel...@zerobeat.net ttp://mailman.zerobeat.net/mailman/listinfo/drakelist
