Thank you for the replies, and sorry for taking so long to acknowledge them. I was supposed to get an e-mail notification but did not receive any.
Anyway, I was able to unplug the jack wires and I tested each jack individually with a couple of jumper wires. They did not seem to have much of a spark when I connected them, either down or up, so that told me the amp draw was not too drastic.
I have decided to use four DTDP momentary on switches and a standard off and on switch and make my own controller and run the jacks manually. The only problem I can see is I will have to be careful when retracting the jacks so as not to raise them to far, and to let go of the switch when they are all the way up.
Thanks again, Bob
