Paul,

It appears to use the type of relays that MFJ and others have moved to.  I
believe they are 20 amp automotive relays, but not sure.  We discussed
QSK/vacuum relays, and they said it was in the future.

I left the booth without looking at the T/R design.  Does anyone recall if
it uses vacuum relays, frame relays, or PIN diode switching?

Jim:
That's an overlay on the front panel.  Someone else does them. rf-kit is
sort of swamped right now.  They're going to come out with a brochure down
the road that covers the overlays.
