[R-390] R-392/T-195 (GRC-19) Assistance

[WF2U]

Robert,

You should check with Fair Radio - they sell GRC-19 stuff. Also, Baran
Surplus in PA used to have tons of GRC-19 components.

I bought a couple of MT-851's from a military Jeep parts vendor a few years
ago - he had them brand new in the box.
I may unearth the name and address of that outfit in the next few days.

Check whether your T-195 has the dynamotors or the solid-state inverter
power supply. It makes a tremendous difference in the 24 V power supply
requirements. The dynamotor supply will load down my 50 A supply at start to
the point that I need to keep 2 12 V batteries in series connected in
parallel with the supply, to supply the starting current, when I'm using one
of my T-195's which has the dynamotors.
My other T-195 has the solid state inverters instead of the dynos, and I
power it up from a 35A Lambda  switching supply which happens to be
completely RFI free, so it doesn't kill the reception with interference. No
starting surge current and it takes around 32 A peak!
