Hi folks,

Can anyone help me with a data book or catalog listing data
for the Toshiba limiters, circulators, MMIC front ends, etc. for
JRC/Raytheon/Furuno X-Band boat radars made in the 1980's.

I have searched the net and found nothing, and yet I own dozens
of these devices pulled from junked radar units. I have a 'rough'
idea but it would help to know the original specs, mainly for
the MMIC devices.

I realize they won't tune the hamband, I really just want to find
out if they meet original specs.

Thanks!!!

Did you think to contact the Support Engineering Staff at Toshiba????

I thought not.....

Duhhhh

Who's answer in broken english was "We don't support those products
any longer". And I asked in disbelief "Can't you help me with data
sheets or tell me where on your website I can download the .PDF files".
Mr. Suckagookie said "We no longer have that information". So would
you like to kmow how many of those "If you want to talk to a real
human you are S.O.L., if you want to listen to more stupid choices
press 2" that I fumbled through just to get Mr. Suckagookie on the
line.

Have you had any luck getting obsolete data sheets from a Jap
company recently? I thought not. Duhhhhhh.

Thanks for casting the first stone of stupidity by accusing me
of not having tried all logical avenues first. Thanks for appending
Duhhhhh to your reply as an insult to me.

About all I can really say is that you are probably one of those
assholes who is to stupid to turn off their foglights when it isn't
foggy. Thats why they are called fog lights and not "Turn'em on
any f--king time lights". See if they were supposed to always be on
they wouldn't have that second switch that intelligent folks use to
turn them off with. Yes, giving you access to usenet newsgroups and
giving you fog lights was like giving a machine gun to a ****ing monkey.
Same results. Do you have any idea what those parts I mentioned above
are used for and how? Do you know anything about 9.3ghz to 9.5ghz
portion of X-Band where I spend most of my work day. Here's 50kw
of ionizing radiation for your thoughts. Remember, always look
directly into the magnetron at very close range while testing the
pulse forming network, it will spark your imagination. CRDM Retired 1996
