[GreenKeys] Navy radio question...

[Andreas Müller]

Hi,
there are at least two different power supplies for the URT-23, obviously 
depending on the shipboard power. The unit I have here right now is called 
PP-3916 and is made for 440V, 60Hz, 3P. It has the same height like the 
R-1051. There is another one which has double size and as far as I know is 
made for 1P power.
If anybody has further information about the WRC-1, specially about the 
AM-3007 and the inter-unit cabling (there is supposed to be a junction box 
also) I would be happy. Besides the URT-23 I have a T-827J, a R-1051E, some 
mounting parts and a remote control C-1138. I would like to put it 
alltogether towards a WRC-1 if I could get the AM-3007 one day.
Andreas

PS: Is there a source to get the appropriate connectors?
