[Llgpt at aol.com]

That should have read "no loss" when inserted between antenna and  receiver

Group,
 
Recently acquired a U.S. Navy multicoupler. This is a real beauty, and  runs 
very cool unlike the Sylvania CU-1280 I had a few years ago. Description  as 
follows:
 
Nomenclature tag on front panel reads:
 
                                                                            
Serial  No. A4
                                                       29355-0135929
                                                   MF/HF Multicoupler
                                                       CU-2279/BRC
                                       Des.Act.: Navalex Ctr. Charleston, SC
                                          Contract   N00612 - 84 - D - 0105
 
Standard Rack Mount, 3.5" height. 10" deep from back of front panel.  Solid 
state. beautifully built, deutz fasteners on top cover.
 
Has two channels, A & B each has an N antenna input, 4 bnc outputs  and 1 
test bnc output.
 
Covers 100 khz to 100 mhz, perfdormance drops off beloow 100 kc and above  
100 mc (oops, khz, I'm old) Appears to have unity (no gain) when inserted  
between antenna and receiver, and 6db gain when "Amo On" button is engaged.  Each 
channel Amp On button is lit by leds, and has a red "overload" section on  the 
tiop half of the buttton. A friend obtained two of these off the E place  and 
offered me one. Very quiet and a beautifully crafted piece of  equipment.
 
However, I cannot find any documentation anywhere on it. I work for the  
Federal Government and have friends in supply and logistics attempt to run  down 
the contract number with no luck.
 
Seems interesting the Destroyer Squadrons out of Charleston would have  
purchased these on their own contract?
 
Hope someone can shed some light on these.
 
And, no, there aren't anymore available.
