Default Re: Boonton RF Probes; Diode Replacement

Just for fun I looked up a common or garden reed relay that RS sell.
Switching time including bounce 0.7mS which is probably good enough.

The snag seems to be that it's rated for 100 million switching cycles. Chopping at 90Hz I made that about 300 hours or a bit under 2 weeks of continuous operation.
