AA4-rectifier-module, my phonetics.

Here's a Donzelli puzzle

I'm looking' to ID a rectifier module almost certainly fm a shipboard
'bedspring' vhf radar.  Uses 6 371 WECo rectifiers & bet this is a
piect outa a set that used the brute 527 triode.  AN AN/SPQ-??

GI name is a PP1182/MS8006012.  Instead of w WECo 'KS number,' it's gotta 
'GS number' that I bet means "govt. std." instead of "Kearny std."  It's
GS154064. & sn 1206... not like they built just one.

Has 6 371Bs lit by a 400hz xfrmr.  That made at first think it was
airborne & it may be.

It's in a open AL cubic frame ~16" on a side, has gnurled chrome knobs on
shaft ends that lock module in place.  Monstah 2 x .5 ufd 12kv filter.

Was thinking of lighting it up, but 5V @ 60A?  Then the dawning,
A computer switcher.  A big computer switcher.

If this the last missing piece of some big gizmo on the nat'l registry,
it's free

Otherwise it goes to Marty's wierd science wall with that switcher.  Looks
like the corridor lamp to me.
