Duane:

I brought this up a while back.  I can't remember the callsign, but a fella
sent me a file with the circuit to do it.  However, it won't work in my
situation.  I have a HercII built for Kachina, a KC500DC.  Basically identical
except how it changes bands.  The HercII requires a +12v signal, my KC500
requires a ground.

At any rate when I get home I'll send you the file so you can pass it on.
