 I still have this complete with 14 relays for sale these relays are surface 
mount.  This would be good insurance at 110.00 when it cost 110.00 labor at 
TenTec.

I have a low pass board for a Ten Tec Eagle . I though I needed a relay
found out the trouble was on the tuner board. I now have a complete board
for the Eagle if I had sent the Eagle down for repairs it would have cost me
shipping and 110.00 for labor plus parts, It cost me 190.00 for the board, I
no longer have the Eagle so I am selling the low pass board for 140.00
shipped.
