Those relays that Rich (and I ) used are mostly unavailable. I used to
buy them 100s at a time. No more of them can be had.
Most of what you find on eBay are seconds and most don't work. Or they
are re-labeled counterfeits.

G'day Vic.
The Matsushita/Panasonic relay that Rich Measures used in his QSK
circuit, published at somis.org, is still available on Ebay. I bought
10 of them a couple of years ago
Otherwise, Jim, W7RY, uses a small relay in his QSK kit. He laso deals
on Ebay.

I'm trying to choose a relay to use as the input relay in a QSK amp.
I have been very satisfied with the Jennings RJ1-A as an output
relay. The input relay in this circuit needs to be DPDT, or I'd just
use two similar vacuum relays.
Here are my needs:
1. DPDT.
2. 12 or 24v coil.
3. Operate/release time, including bounce <= 4 ms. Faster is better.
4. Should carry 100w RF in 50 ohm system. Not expected to make/break
live circuit.
5. Must have low resistance for low-level signals (receive path).
6. Must have long life >= (10 x 10**6 operations)
7. Must not be insanely expensive, and available from Mouser or RS.
I found this relay:
<https://www.mouser.co.il/datasheet/2/418/NG_SS_108-98005_L-1019204.pdf>
But maybe there's a better choice? I'm overwhelmed by the number and
varieties of relays in the catalog.
