[Lowfer] WA tests

[Bill Ashlock]

Jay, John A, 185.3 group:

I just figured out how to short out the resonant loop capacitor in order to 
eliminate the effects of one loop on the other. Turns out that few 
optoisolators will handle a 400v p-p sine wave in their OFF state(including 
the triac versions that, unfortunately, trigger on the dv/dt of this 
waveform). The Aromat AQZ204 solid state relay appears to do the job nicely 
and has no capacity or leakage problem, lowering the Q or detuning the 
circuit.

Should be able to install one of these in both finals and be sequencing at 
185.300 later tonight. .......that is if the scheduled rain/snow clears as 
predicted. (Yah, right!)

Bill
