[GreenKeys] RS232 to 60ma loop

[John, W9DDD]

Thought I'd share my slow progress on using the polar relay as a 232 to 
60mA converter.

I'm still pondering whether to just bring out the relay contacts, or to 
use the power supply and the 2k resistors in the polar relay base to 
make it another loop in the shack.   I have a 4 jack jack field that 
mounts in a LESU frame (thank you WU).  It currently has TS jacks, I'd 
want to change those for TRS jacks.  So can I figure out a way to have 
either choice, seems like I'd need to add a switch, or maybe a jack that 
has extra switching capability.  Plug into one jack and you get dry 
contacts. Plug into the other and you get a 60mA loop.  Hmm is that doable?
