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)
