Eric,
Hardwire the cw/ssb switch in the SSB position and use the switch as your
standby switch.

Subject: [AMPS] SB-220: Operate/Standby Switch
In the May 1989 QST article http://www.arrl.org/tis/info/pdf/sstrans.pdf
and a thread a few months back, a good modification to make (lets not
debate the fact again, as it may not really be required, but I want to do
it at any rate) is to add a standby/operate switch to keep the filaments on
and hot, to the unit. I would like to do this modification and lower the
keying requirements at the same time, per the article, but I do not want to
drill any holes in the front panel of the unit to mount the SPST switch.
What are some ideas for adding a switch in a easy to use, inconspicuous
place, that does not involve any permanent changes, i.e. drilling.
I am sure this has come up before, but I can't find the answer in the
archives.
Thanks in advance!
73,
Eric
