[Heathkit] DX-60 PTT

[Bwana Bob]

Yes, Mike, I did it many years ago. I still have a hand-drawn sketch and
schematic which I can send you. I used a 24 Vdc relay with a small A.C.
supply inside the rig. The relay switched the 115 V for the antenna
relay, the keying line, and the 6146 screen supply. I replaced the mic
jack with a 1/4 inch stereo phone jack so it could be used with the PTT
mic. No holes were drilled to make the mod. Even the new mic jack fitted
the hole for the original one.
