I'm looking for a Dow-Key 12 VDC antenna relay in decent condition. I'm
rebuilding a Collins KWS-1 transmitter and will need an antenna relay
when I get it on the air. The original Collins design required a 110
volt DC relay, which are just about as scarce as the proverbial hen's
teeth! As a result, I'm redoing the unit to supply 12 VDC to the relay
coil in transmit mode.
I need a relay with the switching contacts that control the keying bias
for the transmitter. These are normally a set of SPDT contacts on the
bottom of the relay, operated by a fiber plunger on the bottom of the
relay armature.
Can anyone help me out? Please let me know.
Thanks!!
