[Milsurplus] RE: Handcrank G-76 NOT SCR-274 spline

[Bill Strangfeld]

G-76 goes with PRC-70 (which takes 24V) and comes in hand-crank or foot-pedal versions.  Photos of hand version in closed auctions 
280161156897 and 250176935224

 >Possibly a G-77/G.  17.5 VDC output.  Battery charging generator for 
AN/PRC-74 and maybe others.  Built from the G-43/G (different generator and regulator 
but same case, geartrain and stand).  However, although it is thinner than the 
GN-58 or GN-45, and possibly lighter (I've never had one) it is taller than 
the older units.  The only handcrank generator I can think of that clearly 
looks smaller than the others is the G-3/TRC-7 (but not the G-3B/TRC-7).  But it 
has the usual HV outputs.
