OPERATIONAL TEST AND EVALUATION OF SELECTED COMMUNICATIONS AND GROUND POWER EQUIPMENT UNDER COLD WEATHER CONDITIONS

摘要

This test was conducted to determine the capabilities of selected communications and ground power equipment to operate under cold weather conditions, prior to winter use of the same equipment on a field exercise in Alaska. It was concluded that the AN/TSC-15 and AN/MRC-94 Communications Centrals, the AN/PRC-25, AN/PRC-41 and AN/PRC-47 Radios, as well as the PU-549/G Generator Set, can be operated at a temperature of -40°F. when certain precautions and procedures are observed.
