A friend in South Africa has obtained a marine MF radio but can't
find any info. He says it's a Redifon G474, but the Internet has
nothing to say on that subject, so perhaps it's known as something
else. Here is his description:
"It is a Redifon G474 emergency transmitter which covers from 400kHz
to 2.182MHz. It is a 19" rack mount type. It apparently operates off
24V DC and has a pair of 6146s in the final. The exciter is solid
state and the driver seems to be a BFY51. The metering includes PA
current and antenna current with a thermocouple ammeter. I am told it
runs 100W on MCW and 100W pep on AM. The modulator is solid state
with the usual anode-screen modulation. Redifon was absorbed into
Thompson-CSF and then Thales so a bit difficult to get any data on
the equipment."
Does anyone recognise this? Is there any info on the web?
