need info on RT-657/TLQ-15 military tranceiver
Hi Gang,
Picked up an interesting military tranceiver this morning at a radio swap. Its all solid state, but weighs a ton, and runs off of 115 VAC, 400 Hz (its a pseudo-boatanchor). Its an RT-657/TLQ-15, and I've been able to find out very little on the www. The TLQ-15 is apparently a countermeasures set, but thats about all I can find. With a bit of creative hacking, I was able to power it up. It is an all mode (AM, FM, CW, USB, LSB, and some digital modes) tranceiver that covers 1.5 - 20.5 MHz, continuously tunable (LED display). Based on the power transformer ratings and the output transistors, I'd guess it'll put out about 100+ watts. Anyway, there are a LOT of BNC connectors, and a couple of other big connectors on the back panel. Sure would be nice to know what they go to! If anyone out there has one of these beasties, and knows anything about them, I'd sure like to hear from you. A couple of folks at the swapmeet said its a spy radio....not sure about that, but it was probably used in an airplane. Steve |
