[R-390] Kahn SSB Converter

[Tom Norris]

I have a snippet I found in my archives that mentions the unit --

---------
The  Communications  Central  AN/TSC-26  consisted of three S-280  
size shelters (VAN's); one RCVR VAN, one  XMTR  VAN,  and  one  
Control VAN. The AN/TSC-26 was used mainly at the Special  Forces   
Operating  Base  (SFOB) and could be deployed to support a Battalion  
FOB.

In  the  original AN/TSC-26 configuration the RCVR VAN had three  
positions. Each  had  two  R-390(*) RCVR's, two CV-1716/GR's, two  
Kahn CV-1982 ISB converters, one  RD-265/GR, a IDY intercept alarm,  
and a control panel to control the three XMTR's in the XMTR VAN.   
Also it had the I think also this was also one the systems that had   
an AN/GSH-7 recorder/convertors and play back unit AN/TSC-26.  The  
latter were for decoding GRA-71 burst transmissions.

Roger might be able to comment, as this was around during his tour of  
duty.
