[Milsurplus] TCS series Power supply

[ROBERT W. DOWNS]

Group,

The TCS shipboard power supplies have always been scarce, even the
PP-380/U's.  I've collected TCS's since the 70's and in all that time onl=
y
managed to acquire two shipboard supplies (different type numbers) and
three  PP-380's (only have one of each left).  However, as it happens, I
have a fairly good supply of most of the power and remote connectors, bot=
h
cable (straight and right angle) and chassis.  Some are NOS and some RFE
(and the equipment that they were removed from was mostly industrial [pip=
e
inspection or geophysical], not TCS's).

I also have some dual dynamotor 12VDC and single dynamotor 12/24VDC
dynamotor power supplies.  Various conditions from good only for parts to=

NOS.  Come to think of it, several years ago, I sold some of the dual
dynamotor units to four or five people for the purpose of building an AC
supply on the base/chassis.  The duals have all three chassis connectors
and I'd guess about 85% of the necessary wiring already in place.  Plus
there is an 8 HY 100 MA filter coke already in place in the receiver supp=
ly
line.  For that matter, I have some of the chokes loose.  Unfortunately,
the only TCS transformers that I have are all audio (receiver audio out,
transmitter microphone input & modulation).  The only AC power transforme=
rs
that I have (or at least know that I have) are in that batch of !@#$% ARD=

receivers that I made the mistake of buying years ago.  :-)
