[Milsurplus] RA-62 specs ??

I can't find any info on the RA-62 power supplies, but
think I can get close on its output from the "Surplus
Radio Conversion Manual, Vol I" specs for the BC-624
receiver and the BC-625 transmitter.

Unit           Voltages/currents

BC-624   12 VDC @ 1.7 A   300 VDC @  60 mA
BC-625   12 VDC @ 2.4 A   300 VDC @ 260 mA   -150 VDC (low current)

In 1959, I modified one into full wave bridge rectifier
and powered a homebrew pair of 807s modulated by
a pair of 1625s, so there is plenty of grunt available.

Unfortunately, two very nice RA-62 units were among
the items I chose to discard following destruction of
my home by tornado.  The rack-mounted BC-625 and
a BC-639 receiver did survive.

Anyone have specs for the RA-62 supply?  I recently made visual
contact with one.
Tnx, Hue Miller
