[MRCA] BC221 Question

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

If the internal AC supply is homebrew, you're probably on your own.  I have 
BC-221 manuals available but no one is going to have any info on a homebrew 
supply.

If the supply is military, it is either RA-133-A, B, C or PP-79/UR.  With 
those, some of us might be able to help.  All of the official internal AC 
supplies have ON/OFF switches in the line cords.  The front panel switch will 
turn the set off (but not turn off the power supply) but it will not turn it 
on unless you also turn on the supply.  If the AC line has been routed 
through the front panel switch, then you're on your own as who could know how 
some hacker might have done that.

If you are in doubt as to whether the supply is home brew or not, you can 
send photos to me.
