Are you talking about the tank itself, or the support pylon. The pylon is in 130H-4-51-1, section 52-20-1, Fig 1

If you mean the tail cone on the tank itself, that would be in TO series 6J14 series. I don't have access to those.

I don't know, unless it's a training situation and the trainer is making sure the loader is in sync with everything going on.

What part?

An IPB with Fig and Index would help. I'm just an avionics toad.

It actually an A/C TCTO C130- ?????

If that is the case, how do engines in supply get modifed? If I could still access the TCTO/TO system, I could probably tell you. Eveything I have is over 10 years old.

Why no long wires?

That repair should be in the 1C-130A-3.

Any fix would have to be approved by the engineers at WRALC.

Can't help you there, I am sure they have their own books that maintenance squadrons aren't privy to, probably more like work cards.

Good luck, you could always find some domes and make the hole thing. These could easily be painted on the inside. https://www.cobeads.com/p-1824986-decorative-glass-dome-cloche-cover-bell-jar-clear.html?currency=USD&msclkid=72aedbcdb5e213e7c30bba8c99b571d1&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=EN-(US)Shopping Ads&utm_term=4582627042421697&utm_content=All Products

Should be in a supplement to the 2J-T56 series T.O.s. If it is a commodity TCTO, it won't have a C-130 TCTO number.

I couldn't anything in my info on that blade part number.

Sorry, don't have any experience on the J models, or any tech data. What base are you at?

I don't know if there are any relays involved in the DC system on those birds, but if there are, swap two of them. I would also check the AC input connections to the TRs.

I remember we had a hydromite at Moody and Ramstein, but don't remember periodic draining. There's nothing in the old 130A-06 that says anything about it. Of course, I was the avionics guy.

Looking at the picture and the question, the one that fits and doesn't leak. Why not use the IPB?

I well remember my days up in the nose wheel well of C-130s on the frozen, wind blown flight line at Elmendorf replacing APN-59 RTs and antennae alone, freezing to death and breaking my back without any help. That system was at least half our workload there which included ALL avionics systems, as we were severely undermanned and expected to fix it ALL right after we transitioned from AAC to MAC. As they told me right after I got there from Moody AFB in December 1979, “You’re no longer a comm/nav troop. You’re an avionics troop”.

Been there, done that way too many times.

Tiny,

Did you ever get the s*** knocked out of you trying to adjust the centering on one of the IP-268 scopes. I did, three times in a row setting at Cam Rahn Bay. I was cpvered with sweat and told the shop chief I quit for the day my hands were shaking so bad.

I know this is old and you may not see it, but yes. I started wrapping F4 tape around my scribe, should have worn a leather glove to hold the scope.

Anderson pretty much covered everything. Therer are still ARN6 ADF systems on some H models as far as I know, but I've been retired for 10 years.

I probably repaired close to a thousand RT-289s in my career. Early on after training on them, I started replacing the TR and ATR tubes on every one, as well as the PFN if it looked the slightest bit swelled. Our MTBF went up quite a bit.

Is there a two way bubble level indicator on the antenna? Our APS-133 had one. Insure that the antenna is level on the ground with stab on and off.

Is the antenna following the tilt knob? What system is it?

What system are you referring to?

Do I count down from 45?

You can't TDR antenna lines for this system because of the reciever sensitivity of the RT unit. It is over -140db if memory serves correctly. You can rebuild the connectors,  build new cables or swap with another aircraft to see if it fixes the problem. A majority of these kinds of problems are the cables/connectors. Not sure where your R/T is located, or how long the cables are. I built a set of cables just for troubleshooting for several of the different platforms I worked. Also, are there any in line connectors in your aircraft? 

Do you guys still have NATEC civilians?
