My thanks to all who responded to my appeal for specific manual pages and information regarding the COLLINS KWT-6 transmitter (AN/URC-32). I have only its linear amplifier module and matching antenna coupler/wattmeter module. Since my TMC PAL linear amplifier is almost identical to the KWT-6 linear in PA tubes, specifications, and power requirements, I am hoping to use the TMC power supply to operate the COLLINS linear using an altered KWM-2 transceiver as a low-power AM exciter (K2VVL article: QST June 1963) or, possibly, a FLEX 1500 transceiver, which also can provide the nominal 1-Watt input requirement of the linear.
I am intrigued by the new FLEX or the low power ELECRAFT K3 as AM or SSB exciters with the KWT-6 linear--that would be a marriage of outstanding technologies 50 years apart!!. A special thanks to Nick, K4NYW, who provided pdf files of the entire KWT-6 manual--687 pages. This might take a day or two to read!!! 73 Hal KK6HY ______________________________________________________________ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Post: [email protected] To unsubscribe, send an email to [email protected] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
