Eric,
If you really want to do it the best way is to replace the
rel. output sensitivity pot with a pot that has a built in
on/off switch. Then wire the switch in series with the
wire going to the relay control jack on the rear panel.
With the switch in the off position the amp can't be
keyed. No holes, easily restored back to normal.
