[GreenKeys] OT - Hal made receivers?

Thu Jan 2 19:56:45 EST 2014

A weird stash  accessory on top  of our 14TD  !

I am assuming this  2 compartment  file is  for    messages or? 

We also have the shelf that will go on top of  the 14 TD  to put  a  typing 
reperf but... you can not  use both  ' on top of   14 TD accessories at the 
same  time!   The  work-a-round is  to get another  model 19!

Then...  you also can see our dangling   punch that is   hanging  by the  
wires.  it has been separated for a while  and    there is a reattach  metal 
piece thing that MAY hod  it partially...    the  rods  are missing  or  
still in  one of these wonderful Michigan   akro  mills   plastic  drawer  
collections of  parts...

The  workaround  for the  dangling punch?  put the case  back on  ... ok 
now it looks ok visually so we put it in the  static  display  area.. and... 
GET ANOTHER MODEL 19  to   demo  things  with!  < yea that's the ticket!>

>From the  SMECC Archives  -  Bill Henry  tells   us - 
"The  HFCS-1000 is a simulator of the RACAL RA-2174 receiver. The front 
panel  duplicates the RACAL but the HAL unit is not a receiver itself. We built 
many  of them for DOD to train intercept operators. It simulates the 
presence of  over 1 million CW and RTTY signals over the tuning range of the 
"receiver". A  room full of HFCS's are hooked via LAN to an instructor's station 
who can  download "signals" on various frequencies and transmit typical text 
to each  student. The test is of course to find the "target" among all of 
the  background signals, noise, QRM, etc. and correctly copy the text. It was 
a fun  project for us."

That  would explain a lack of antenna connector on that  unit!

If I remember correctly, the Hal HFC-1000s were not  receivers at all, but 
rather were training aids in the use of the Racal  RA6790GM receiver in 
various intercept operations.  Several  HFC-1000s, essentially an RA6790 GM 
simulator designed to look and operate  like the actual Racal receiver, were 
connected to a central training  console operated by instructors who sent 
simulated signals to the student  "workstations", and observed the student's 
actions as they operated the  simulated receivers.

This is the  first one I've ever heard of.
Does anyone have any first hand  experience with them?
