[AMRadio] Ranger schematic needed

[Richard Dill]

Yes, the 110 VAC relay is an small two pin socket on the back of the radio,
assuming it is unmodified.  You can fashion a HC-6 Xtal holder to plug into
it for the relay.  A better alternative might be to allow the Receiver to
control the relay.  Works with my SX-115/Ranger combination quite well.
Good luck!
