I inherited a TBX-4a years ago, over the last few weeks I decided I'd like
to see it run. After building a power supply for the receiver
a kit I bought from antique electronic supply and reworking it slightly,
last night I got to hear it receive!!! I had been using a set
of headphones that were not working, advice from others said use a speaker,
which I did and its doing just fine.
Now for the TX section, this weekend if I can I'll put a PS together to run
the that side of it. I'm starting to enjoy seeing
this Military stuff run, (my wife will be thrilled, another collection part
of the hobby!) hi hi. I'll be needing cable for the
power supply, I'll build a battery box with both inside for aesthetics, what
did they use back then? and is it available still?
I need 7 conductors capable of 135v on one and 5 conductor for the transmit
power capable of 500v insulation..
thanks, maybe you'll hear me on the air with it soon!
