RBS-2 receiver, Type CCT-46217-A

[Ed Tanton]

Hi Ed,

My first receiver was a surplus RBS-2, quite similar to yours.
Unfortunately, you appear to be missing the separate Power Supply unit,
which also handles what was excellent output (I THINK it was a pair of 6V6s
or 6K6s.) I have not seen a lot of RBS-2 units (yours is the 2nd since the
late 20th century) so I have to say the prospect of your finding the
PS/Audio unit are probably slim-and-none.  And good as your talents are, I
would consider building your own PS to be quite challenging. Sorry to be the
bearer of such bad news.

Hi all;
   
  I just purchased a WWII reciever on EBay and am going to need a manual.
Anyone have one for a RBS, RBS-1, or RBS-2? Thanks! 
   
  It also appears from the EBay picture (Item #260148864302) that it has an
8 pin connector as opposed to a common 9 pin. Anyone have a female 8 pin
around or know where I can get one? Thanks all!
