[GreenKeys] Solid State relays

[Larry Tighe]

Hi Roy,

My only question was why it was keying the 3 VDC of the ohmmeter and not the 
130 VDC, 60 ma loop.  That had miffed me.  I did receive an explanation, 
didn't understand it, and so, I guess, it's not a problem now.

I do use the solid state switch Tom Tillman was distributing...mounted it 
inside the Hal 8000A's that I have and it's perfect.

Thanks,
lar
