Bob,

The PU-116/U and PU-116A/U are rated at 4KVA @ 115VAC/60Hz.
The PU-181/PGC-1, which was formerly called the PE-214, sounds =

more like what you may have had, although I wouldn't describe it as =

something that you could hold in one hand.  It is rated at 300VA @ =

115/230VAC/60Hz.  The outlets are mounted right in the end of the =

generator, not in a separate box.

Also, WRT a couple of other replies, the 5KVA (early models) and =

10KVA (later models) with the flat-head 4-cylinder engine that was =

used with the SCR-299/399/499, AN/MRC-1,2 and some other sets =

was the PE-95-(*).  The engine is basically the same as used in the =

Willis MB/GPW, although it was de-rated, the manifolds are different, =

etc.  The PE-97-(*) is the vibrator power supply for the SCR-510 =

(BC-620).

the unit was called something like a PU-116 or close to that number...
Anyone have a clue what it was?
