Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
That GRC-106 sounds like a vacuum cleaner in a tornado when it is running. Its the 400Hz outside blower buried in the amplifier case. 12000 rpm, 2 or 3 blades. It might be possible to mount a thermistor to the part of the heat exchanger that he radio heats up, and let that control the fan speed with a small bridge rectifier and a pass transistor. That is what was going to be tried with my 106A units but I sold them off to a collector that wanted them more than I did.Here are a few pictures of my AN/GRC-142B teletype shelter restoration, fully operational, just need to find the fuel heater.
