[R-1051] Adapter

I think I did about the same thing on one of the xcievers.
Essentially like you this was one nasty mess. Someone cut the 48 position
tr relay out.
The back required some mil spec 36-60 pin connector etc etc. By the way
this unit used tubes in the front end so a mix of supply voltages were also
needed. So there was a large plug hole for preassure or something. Popped
that out and routed the cables in ref ant DC and ac... Nice harness about
the size of RG8 coax or your index finger. Used the small rg174 coax. Been
working very well for 10+ years.
The annoyance. When you slide it into the chassis you slip it in pull the
cable and slip it in some more.. Takes about 2-3 pulls. A bit ugly but sure
works.
Regards
Paul
