[MRCA] Acquired a batch of military radios

Thu, 29 Aug 2002 23:32:36 -0400

Rick,

You got yourself a few nice pieces of equipment.

To find information on the Model 19 Mk II transceiver, go to the Wireless
Set 19 web site at http://www.qsl.net/ve3bdb/

The  RT-91/ARC-2  was manufactured by Collins between 1944 and 1946,  it is
a 2-9 MHz, 30 W AM/CW airborne transceiver, 25 tubes, works off 28 VDC with
an internal dynamotor.

The Collins COL-52245 is a transmitter, part of the TCS system (US Navy,
WW2 - to Korean war), frequency range: 1.8-12 MHz.
There is a description at
http://www.shopingathome.com/TCS%2012%20Transmitter%20Receiver.htm  .

The   RT-252A/TRC-27  is  a transportable, multichannel microwave TDM relay
set.    >>>this would be sort of useless for ham use.....

from the estate of a friend.  Among them are several nice units that I
don't have information on in my library:

RT252A/TRC-27 brand new, never used.  Appears to be microwave frequency

RT-91/ARC-2

Collins COL-52245

"Signal Corps Model 19 Mk II"

If anyone has any information on these units, such as manual
availability, military units that used them, etc., I would appreciate
your assistance.

73,

Rick Bonds
