The radio switch controlling the AC primary of the power supply is
exactly how Tentec intended it to be used. I use a master station supply
for several radios and tncs and so I used the relay in the new cable
that I made for my Corsair II.
The cube automotive relay that I used probably came from Hosfelt, but it
sold in every auto parts store as well as from Mouser and Digi-Key,
often for as little as $3 or 4.
