Years ago, I replaced my amplifier relay in my Omni A series B with a 2N2222
transistor. I just used the relay pick voltage to fire the transistor. As
long as your amp does not draw more current than the 2N2222 will handle, and
the open circuit voltage of the amp relay is not excessive, this will work
fine and it is simple to do.

Subject: [TenTec] Corsair II Amplifier Relay
I thought this had probably been covered already but I cannot find
anything about it in the archives or by Googling. Has anyone replaced
the amplifier relay in the Corsair II with a PIN diode? I read the
different ways to silence the relay but nothing about replacing it with
something else.
Thanks,
