[Milsurplus] ACR-5 Mobile

Troops,

I'm starting to contemplate taking a stock AN/ARC-5 mobile so people can 
see and hear it.  This would be a single transmitter and receiver, 
probably on 75 meters, plus an MD-7 modulator, RE-2 antenna relay, and 
control boxes as needed.  I have all of above, but need a single 
transmitter rack and mount, MT-68/69.

Does anyone know the actual output of the TX?  Manual sez 15 watts 
carrier, but I suspect a pair of 1625's with 550 on the plates should do 
at least twice that.

Also, there the issue of primary power.  I'm looking for a good way to 
get 28 volts at about 10 amps from 14 volts with enough reserve to spin 
up the TX dyno.  I don't suppose anyone has 12/14 volt dynomoters for 
MD-7 and RX lying around?

Any help or suggestions appreciated.

Regards,
Al
