Pete, See RF parts.com, search vacuum relay VC2T-13.2. SPDT will allow you to change your mind about what state you want with no voltage to winding. And you will not need to buy a 24 volt power supply.
Rated 12 kV will handle anything ham QRO. These are new, currentLy manufactured items. 73, and Happy Holidays, Guy K2AV On Tue, Dec 10, 2019 at 11:31 AM N4ZR <n...@comcast.net> wrote: > Now that I've determined that my transmitting antenna must be > disconnected, in order for my K9AY loop to work successfully, can anyone > tell me what sort of ratings are required for the relay required to do > this remotely?
