Hi Dana,

Welcome to the group. To explain the alpha-numeric soup in my reply,
I was trained in Radar Systems before being cross-trained as an
instructor in RF Communication Systems (I then migrated into Precision
RF power measurement out to 12GHz).

The first class I taught was a two week course in the theory and
maintenance for the Collins R-390. I also taught the four week course
for the Collins URC-32 (very few seen in amateur application as
KWT-6). I taught other equipment as well, but they are even more
obscure to Hams. The Collins gear was like learning to drive and
maintain a Rolls-Royce.
