Hi Bill,
That's a RFK series relay. Definitely NOT a reed relay.
A modification of the ol' half size crystal can units.
The contacts will survive low current switching at bias voltages.
However... these are only rated for 100K operations. Rather on the light
side for QSK unless you're sending really brief messages. :-)
73 & Good morning,
