[GreenKeys] Paul's relay

I have been thinking about Paul's symptoms. If he has lost current on the
bias winding, that would leave the bistable relay stuck in the marking
position.

If the relay passes the bench test. He could  use Ohm's law to rough out
the voltage on the 30 mil and 60 mil windings and try to measure it with
the relay in circuit. If there is no bias it comes down to troubleshooting.
I would make sure the power supply is working first then start tracing
backwards from the relay. If there is a bias current test jack make sure
the shorting contact is closing.
