Thanks guys!
I got just what I expected from the Wizards on the board. Nice responses from the very simple to a little more complex!
Art Benstein and Rico S are right on with their comments about timing and security not needed!
I have did what Trev29 suggests on my 78's radio. It was by accident years ago. It comes on with just the key in the switch. Thanks for reminding me of that!
Onkel Udo, brought the override switch back around and using a momentary one. I didn't think of that being a push on type. It could be tiny since I was wanting to use the existing systems relay.
I need to find a nifty place for something like that to give up some automation.
I want to thank Amarin for the link to the pluse signal timer. The pulse part has me thinking it's a digital output for digital circuits. Though I t might be too "new age" for me to understand.
I saw this one just below the one Amarin sent and was just as reasonably priced as well! It has a heavy duty relay built on the board and would fit this and many other projects

I have another idea for my house heat pumps air handler. I want to delay it turning off the fan while the indoor coil is either hot or cold for the seasons. I will look one for a 110 volt AC input & output on that site!
I'm so dated! I'm used to those industrial with a dial on top but they are not as cheap! Potter & Brumfield days!
I have two military looking ones with a range of 300 seconds. They are in my 40 year old junk boxes. Trouble is the are made with pins to plug into vacuum tube sockets! (:-)
I could still make one work but it might look ugly!
From that alone, someone would know I did it!
Phil
