TOD..
i have just what you need!
I use this critter to control trition's argosy's and other ten tec
radios.
it will switch 30 amps but the switch contacts in the radio only see
15 ma...
it's fet driven and when switched, the relay holding current is only
1/3 of the rated coil current.
I don't have a photo of it yet, but did make up 5 prototypes...
The original idea was for using the older ten tec radios on emergency
power i.e battery, but wanting to use the front panel power switch..

Greetings all.
I'd like to be able to use the AF power switch on my Corsair and
Argosy with my Astron PS. TenTec states that the AF switch is not
rated to use 12v at the required amperage. They recommend using a
relay, Guardian series 200 or Potter Brumfield PR3DYO. Neither seems
readily available. Can anyone recommend a suitable replacement?
Thanks.
