[MRCA] AM-66 Amplifier

[Stew Beckley]

Be ready to do a lot of ignition noise suppression! About 50 years ago I
installed a BC-1306 and a PE-237 in my '61 VW beetle (stacked behind the
back seat. With the engine running, all I could hear was noise; but with the
engine off, I couldn't transmit because that tiny 6V battery in the VW
couldn't handle the PE-237. Made for a cumbersome T/R transition. So much
for Old Military Radio mobility!

I just acquired an AM-66 amplifier for my GRC-9.   Strangely, both of the
nomenclature data plates are missing from it. Just wondering why this would
be, and secondly, if anyone has a source for replacements?  Perhaps someone
has an AM-66 for parts?  Yes, I know, a needle in a haystack...   

I'm planning to install the GRC-9 with the AM-66 in my Dodge WC-63, which
was used by the French Army after WWII.  Any words of wisdom from the group?


Thanks,
