[GreenKeys] AN/TGC-14(V)

[Andreas Müller]

Hi everybody!
First I want to thank all of you for the help. The MITE I am working on right 
now is an AN/TGC.14(V). The TTY itself is labeled TT-297/UG and runs on 26V 
DC. The manufacturer is the Teletype Corp. I don't know if there is a 
civilian designation (Don asked for, but I could not find anything). As far 
as I could find out there is only one connector supposed to be.
Looking into the schematics Dave Ross sent me the link to, there need to be at 
least 12 contacts in the connector. Does anybody know if the connector might 
be identical to the one on the TT-264/AG? I could not identify this one 
either, maybe someone has a Part No or an FSN/NSN.
