Thanks to all for the help and advice. For the info of all, the relay in this VI+ was sealed, so no opportunity for previous owners to "wedge" contacts. C8 (.01 capacitor) was shorted. Replacing it solved the n.o. contact that was shorted. Still won't key (using the trusty old ohmmeter, not the amp) and I'm not brave enough to go further with surface mount transistors, hi. I was brave enough to take the surface mount C8 off the board and replace with a small discrete component, but that transistor looks AWFULLY small, hi. I'll contact Paul and go from there. Again, thanks to all for suggestions to try.
73,
Don, WB5HAK
