I'm moving to Korea and and set my station with RigRunner 4005I and turn off and on the radio and the HF Auto , but how do I to that for the PG-XL at 240 volts.

Just use a heavy duty double pole relay on the power cord wIth a 12vdc coil. Attach the coil of the relay to one of the outlets on the 4005i.

To remotely power off a PG XL you will need a remote 220V switch.

James I have the same situation with my PGXL when I loose power I have to turn off the back switch to get the amp running. It appears it has to go through the test process to recover. It looks like it is running but no network connection. I have not tried unplugging and plugging in again as a test. Tim could probably give a technical explanation. I did install a UPS on computer and all network devices to maintain network connections and hoped that was the source of the behavior. Will test more. I was considering using a contractor to switch the 240 vac. Reasonable price and robust. 73 Bill W9JJB

The NEW version of the DLI Power switch PRO and DIN Relay box has Brown out protection that may do what your needing.

You can set a "Brown out" timer in the switch's to drop power for how ever long you need to.

Asher, Your news of the new DLI Product intrigued me so I call Support and spoke with Mike there and ask him if this switch was in-deed different in that it switch's both HOT legs of the 240 VAC circuit and after about 5 hour he got back to me and he confirmed that it only switch's 1 Leg of the Outlets which is NO different then any of there other switch's SO with this switch OFF you still have NON protected and NOT switchable or FUSED 120 VAC going into the AMP which is a issue and you still need to add a 2 POLE high current relay to power the AMP on and OFF 
I was hopping this would finally give us a true 240 VAC WEB Power switch even though it is only good for 15 Amp per outlet which is really to small for the AMP anyway.
Sorry for the news but best to find out before I spent $189.00 on one.

Bret,

Thanks for investigating! Never occurred to me they'd only switch one leg. Now I have to think about how to package a relay
