[Milsurplus] TCK-4

[Bruce Gentry]

I hope you can find the original power supply to go with it. The MG sets 
were usually 120 or 220 volt DC drive, so supplying that today is not a 
problem. If it has the 3 phase drive motor, a small variable frequency 
drive can easily convert single to three phase. As an alternative to 
that, if you are skillful with motors, it is often possible to adapt a 
three phase motor to single phase by reconnecting the windings and 
adding a starting and run condensor circuit.
