Thanks for all the suggestions from everyone.

I do have the squat switch, I installed it back in 1999. It is set to
activate at 40 KIAS. Unfortunately
at touchdown, my airspeed is ~ 65 KIAS, so the squat SW dose not prevent the
gear from going up.

Thanks for the offer AL but I'm  leaning towards getting the 2037. If I
change my mind, I'll contact you
offline.
