T
he original shipping containers are the best place to keep spare parts. But when
that option is not available, use plastic self-sealing bags. These bags keep dirt, dust,
sand and moisture away from small commo parts in the field.
The plastic bags protect small items like connectors, cables, fuses, o-rings, hand-
sets, microphones and batteries.
And because the bags are clear, you
can tell at a glance what’s inside them.
Here’s a list of some of the available sizes:

Cables…
W
hen it comes to ordering the installation kit for the Frequency Hopping
Multiplexer (FHMUX), TD-1456, the length of the cables matters.
Each of the five
FHMUX installation kits
comes with four cables.
All the kits have one
cable in common. That’s
one electrical radio fre-
quency cable assembly,
CG-3856/VRC,
NSN
12 feet long.
But the other three
cables in all five kits are
the same length within
their kit, but are different
lengths than in the other
kits.
One kit has 6-ft cables;
one has 12-ft cables; one
has 18-ft cables; one has
24-ft cables; and one has
30-ft cables.
The kit you need to
order is determined by
the length of cable you
need to do the job.
Here are the kits and the sizes of their cables::

Commo…
Don’t forget, plastic bags have a
high static charge. Never use them to
store circuit cards, transistors, resistors
or any other device sensitive to electro-
static discharge (ESD). There are spe-
cial anti-static bags for ESD sensitive
items.
Also, when you bag an item, squeeze
the air out of the bag before you seal it
to cut down on condensation.
