Hi Guys and Girls,

I have added an led to a vox repeater. This flashes in time of the rate. So far so good. I just want it to be off when the effect is off, and I just can't seem to wrap my head around this. Even after extensive searching.

The Cathode is connected to B2 of the 2n2646 and the anode of the led with a resistor to 9v.

This will mean the led is always on ofcourse. There's always 9v going to the led, but since the anode of the led is not connected to the 3dpt switch (connecting and disconnecting it from ground) switching the effect on and off won't do anything.

What would be the correct way of doing / thinking?
