*Paul, at Ten Tec says that the Relays for the Low Pass Filter Board for
the Paragon, are no longer available. Written on the white body of the
relay is Wabash and the part # on the relay is 1925-3-2 ...... I am finding
them pretty Unobtainium from all of my usual sources also. Does anyone have
a decommissioned Paragon with a good Low Pass Filter Board? Or any spares
of this relay? We have found some Wabash Reed Relays that are a perfect
Sub. Exact Pin Out and Dimensions. The relays we found do the exact same
job in a Collins KWM-380. I just hate to use Non OEM Parts, no matter how
close the match is.*

Please note, if you have to go the second source route, that you have to pair the relays so that a given band will be using to identical relays, (same close/open characteristics and current consumption).

Several years ago, while I still owner my Paragon, I had to go that route, and Paul at TT stressed the point to me (was also very helpful with obtaining alternative relays)
