[Milsurplus] HELP ON FILTER

[WA5CAB@cs.com]

Dennis,

Replacement of the FL-43-A with the F-147/U was the major part of the MWO I 
mentioned earlier.  It eliminated being able to run the SCR-284 from the 
PE-162-B.  Basically turned the -B into a -C, although the generator remained 
the GN-50-A as apparently swapping the generator would have required swapping 
the engine for mechanical reasons.  There is a supplement to the '45 edition 
of TM -971 that applies, plus there is a later edition of TM 11-971 that 
covers the -C and modified -B as well as the -A.

I've been looking for an -A or unmodified -B for years but never have found 
one.  Every -B I've turned up had the MWO.

>This is the filter box installed on my PE-162-B.    The 162 is a compact, 
lightweight portable MG set consisting of   gasoline engine GE-12-D (two 
cycle) and generator GN-50-A.   Delivers 6.2 and 500 vdc at 150 watts.   In 
addition to the GRC-9, my manual (TM 11-971, July 45) lists the SCR-284-A, 
SCR-694-C, AN/TRC-2 and AN/TRC-2-A for use with this MG set.

My manual actually lists filter box FL-43A for use with this MG set and that 
box included a connector for use with the SCR-284.   However, my set has the 
F-147U box installed which does not have this connector.   I have a 
refurbished unit and replacement of the original filter box may have been 
done as part of this process.
