Abstract: An improved power supply and platform for a military radio has been developed. The apparatus includes a base that is adapted and arranged for supporting a HARRIS 117 radio and a power amplifier adapted to amplify radio frequency output of the radio. The connectors include an electrical connector for the radio and a connector for the amplifier. A power supply is housed within the assembly. A power supply for the connector to the amplifier is also housed within the assembly, Also included is a wiring harness for a SINCGARS LS/671 device and a LED indicator to identify which radio is in operation for multiple radio configurations.

Abstract: An adapter assembly including a base for supporting a SINCGARS radio and a radio frequency power amplifier, a first connector for electrically connecting with the SINCGARS radio and a second connector for electrically connecting with the power amplifier, a first power supply electrically connected with the first connector and a second power supply and a third power supply, the second power supply and the third power supply each being electrically connected with the second connector.

Abstract: The invention relates to an improved method for accounting for, and keeping track of, commodities which are gathered or harvested in one location and thereafter transported for delivery to another location. While the invention is applicable for use with a variety of commodities, the embodiment discussed concerns timber. It provides for a paperless process which accommodates the use by, and inputs from, various persons responsible for different steps in the process. It can be initiated by the timber owner and thereafter allows for the accumulation and recordation of pertinent information by other persons responsible for the various steps of timber identification, harvesting and delivery, such as the forester, loader, timber cutting crew chief, transporter, and destination purchaser. The method provides security, accountability, data entry, data retrieval, and reporting, with respect to commodity harvesting, transport, delivery, and receipt.
