alfway is not enough when you unscrew the primary
power cable from the LS-671 loudspeaker on your
SINCGARS vehicular radio. It’s all the way or nothing.
You need to unscrew the cable’s connector the whole
way before trying to unhook the cable. Some folks stop
halfway. Then they
yank and twist the
cable in a vain effort
to take it off. That
just puts stress on
the circuitry inside
the J1 connector. If
the circuitry gets
damaged, no power
gets through to the
loudspeaker.

AN/PVS-5 NVD…
D
shipping and storage container for
the AN/PVS-5 night vision device,
from your component-of-end items
list. Check any of those “special
NSNs lists” you have and make sure
that NSN is deleted on them, too.
That container is no longer available.
Instead, use shipping box, NSN
8115-00-550-3574, as your shipping
and storage container for the night
vision device. This box is one of the
“Fast Pack” boxes that are supplied
by GSA.
Dear Half-Mast,
We were issued the advanced combat
helmet (ACH), NSN 8470-01-476-2524,
but there’s a problem. The mounting
bracket for the AN/PVS-14 won’t work
with the ACH. The mount is unstable and
sticks above the curve of the helmet. In
short order, the mount breaks. Is there
anyway to solve this mounting problem?
SPC J.D.J.
Dear Specialist J.D.J.,
Order the new ACH/CVC front bracket kit,
NSN 5340-01-509-1467. This mount will work
for your AN/PVS-7s as well as the AN/PVS-14s.
Now you no longer have a mounting problem
.
