[Boatanchors] RS-6

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

The generator was a GN-58-A.  I have plenty of those.  Cranks were standard 
GC-7's.  Legs were cut-down LG-2 (no seat) and LG-3's.  The power cable from 
the generator to one of the power supplies is an odd looking thing, PL-294 (but 
not so marked) one end and one of the 6-contact blue insert connectors on the 
other, also unmarked.  No nomeclature on the cable of course, beyond a red ink 
stamp near the ersatz PL-294 that says P1 and some other stuff I can't make 
out.  I have one of the cables left here but the rubber jacket is quite stiff.  
Probably needs to be replaced before someone tries to use it.  I also have 
one generator nylon jump-bag but I'm not sure that it has all of the harness 
with it as I'm not sure what was required.  And I have never been sure whether it 
was intended to be used with the RS-6 or later AN/GRC-109 (early versions of 
which also used GN-58-A), or with a Paratroop version of the AN/GRC-9.
