Did anyone mention a polar relay like the 255a commonly used on
teletype equipment? Would work with some bias current on one coil
and a shunt resistor across the other coil to work in a 60 ma or 20
ma loop. As these relays are vintage, teletype friendly and plentiful
one should fit in nicely with tube era equipment.
