Since I could wait a long time for a suitable reed receiver to be available on ebay, I wonder if some kind person could
provide a set of dimensions for a reed bank? The length/width and an estimate of reed length would be good, but what I really need is the typical thickness of the spring steel plate. With that I could start to experiment.
I'm guessing that all that is needed after cutting a sheet would be a 3-D printed framework, a relay coil or two and perhaps some adjustment screws? I don't think the actual reeds had a silver contact point, did they? If they did, that's some more relays needed...

Re: Reed Bank Dimensions
Nice set! It looks as if each reed is separate - I haven't seen that before. I assumed that they were always cut out of a single steel sheet. They look very thin...
