RE: electronic markers [TANKS]

["flier" <FLIER-at-sbcglobal.net>]

You'll need switching.  Each output of a receiver is 
a PWM signal with a variable pulsewidth between 1 & 
2ms and a repetition rate ~18ms.  You can't use it 
directly to switch.

Many sources sell relatively inexpensive switches 
that will do the job or a there are some simple 
circuits you can build yourself using TTL logic that 
will do the trick.

Regards,

Ted
