Ok Jim, The rubber one works great even with a sb-220 working hard nearby.
In my video you can hear the sb-220 Jennings vacuum qsk relay, It has the
AG6K qsk kit fitted;

Thanks Adrian,

Shipping to the US was only $1.89 or something miniscule like that - I
didn't even worry about that.  Typical slow boat from China though, last
thing I ordered from there under similar circumstances took about a week and
a half to get it.  Again, not a problem to me.  

 

The little silver top one that someone else posted a link to works fine
unless subjected to heavy RF fields like I happen to have in the shack when
I run the amp as my antennas are pretty close in to the house.  I need to
find a good, fairly inexpensive source of type 31 and type 43 split ferrites
that are small enough for almost a snug fit on 3/16" or at least as small as
1/4" so I can keep the RF from getting into the KB on it's cable.  Some of
this Chinese stuff doesn't have very good RF suppression, so cheap isn't
necessarily best - LOL.
