[TenTec] Omni-D relay clicks

Sun Jan 22 12:12:22 EST 2017

Yes, there are a couple of ways to disable the amp keying relay. In one 
radio I soldered a jumper from the base of the relay driver transistor 
to ground. I another I installed a miniature slide switch glued to the 
side of the relay to do the same thing. Some guys pull the cover off the 
relay and jam a small piece of thin cardboard against the armature to 
hold it closed.
