[Amps] Band Switching with vacuum relays

[Theo Bellamy]

Hi,

I have searched the archives and haven't found much about this ... sorry if
I missed it and the subject has been discussed already.

I am about to begin construction of a YC156 amp (finally). I have all the
parts, including a really nice Gates roller and some big edge wound
inductors. I used a similar roller in my last meat crusher
(http://www.qsl.net/k4mo/Giant.html) but I am thinking about using the fixed
edge wound inductors with some spst vacuum relays on this one.

However, I am not sure about how to determine exactly what ratings the
relays will need to be. Anyone out there have any advice or experiences to
offer? And, perhaps a source for relays? Alan Bond has some but they seem
pretty expensive.

Thanks in advance & 73,
Theo K4MO
