[Milsurplus] Loran Converter

[Mike Feher]

I do not really consider the 19 a US rig, and, we were not the only ones
making them. Even the WS nomenclature is British. - Mike

Yes, although it does make sense in the context of this particular box,
which was adeded to an existing system between the antenna coupler and LORAN
receiver. If it used, say UHFs, this would be needed:


ANT---Coupler---------Pye/UHF---Converter--cable UHF/Pye----APN-4/9

Using the Pyes:

ANT---Coupler------------Converter--cable pye/Pye----APN-4/9

The UHF/Pye adapters are VERY scarce. I've seen perhaps 3 in the last 10
years.


The only other thing US made that uses the Pyes is the WS 19 Mk IIs made for
Russia.
