Hi there, this project motivated me to finally register for an account here-I'm kind of a first-time-caller long-time-listener of the RPF. I've got all the parts ordered. Took me a little while to find an antenna that could be shipped at a reasonable cost from the UK. I'm really excited to start this build, but I was wondering if anyone had any tips for wiring the whole thing?
I'm sure I'll get a better sense once the parts arrive, but from reading the posts and looking at the photos everyone's been sharing it looks like you rewire the lights on the Decision Maker so that they fit into the Signal Generator, adding in the switch to kill the power. Not sure how to install the Keylock switch, I'm hoping that comes with some instructions. Am I close? Does anyone have any advice on putting one of these together?
I know no one's been on this board in awhile, but has anyone else built one of these recently or planning on building one? I was also toying with the idea of adding a remote button that would turn on an appliance. The idea of inviting someone over taking this out turning the key and pushing button to turn on the stereo amuses me (it's not authentic but would add a little fun-factor).
