Hi All Interested to read the mailings on this topic. I've not seen any reference to an effect which used sometimes to catch us out years back when using diodes to "de-click" audio installations. Shunting the coil with a diode (at least with the rather big telephone-type relays of the period) significantly delayed the release time. Maybe that's not so noticeable with more modern, miniature relays storing less energy? 73 de Alan G4LWA ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net
