[Milsurplus] AN/GRC-90-Gy

[WA5CAB@cs.com]

Groups,

Some time ago there was a discussion on one or both of these lists as to 
whether the complete AN/GRC-9 had been built under NATO contracts or just 
most of the components.  Courtesy of a list member, I now have a manual on 
AN/GRC-9-Gy.  The front cover says "HANDBOOK FURNISHED IN LIEU OF TM 11-263" 
and "AN/GRC-9" but inside, it reads "AN/GRC-GY" and the nomenclature of all 
but a few components have "-GY" appended.  Exceptions are Battery BA-48, 
Headset HS-30, Microphones T-17 and T-45 and Generator PE-162 (which 
technically was not a part of AN/GRC-9 anyway).  The manual is dated July 
1954 on the cover and inside looks pretty much like the 1956 TM 11-263 except 
that there are no issue date, approval or distribution pages.  Sig Stk 
Numbers are suffixed "-GY".
