[Milsurplus] Antenna Connector Question

[antqradio at juno.com]

So was the military or at least the USAF.  GRT-3 and GRC-27 UHF
transmitters used them.  Both are capable of 100 watts.  GRA-53 / 54.
URC-9 and others used the bayonet N connector.  They were capable of 16
watts at UHF.  Well, at least that is what I remember and that is my
story and I'm sticking to it, until I'm corrected of course!
