Rotates at 60 PRM (1 rev per second).
24 VDC @ 375 mA.IP740/GR Azimuth Indicator - CRT based Front & Back
Since the continous rotation speed can be up to 150 RPM a CRT type indicator will have a much linger life than a mechanical indicator. The antenna pattern can be seen on the screen and the null direction read out to within 2 degrees.There has been a modification that disconnects the active wire from Diode Input connector on the Front panel and adds a BNC(f) connector to the rear panel, a pot on the rear panel, Red & Black wires coming out the rear panel and a Sense push button on the front panel (maybe to replace a momentary rotary switch?).
On the Front and Rear panel there are a 4 pin Power Input connector (ITT Canon 1S13114E8-4P)
and also a pair of Control Unit connectors (Burndy 14-12P) with 8 small pins and 4 large pins.The name plate says:

U.S.Battery to Indicator Cable Assembly, CX-11950/U (5'0") must have an ITT Canon 1S13114E8-4S connector.
C-6183/GR Antenna control - Front & Back
There is a band switch with "sync" and band numbers 1 through 8 (see above table). The antennas all have provision for 8 band positions, but only some are used in any single antenna. The AS-2360 supports band numbers 1 through 5. The bands are changed by means of a 12 position rotary solenoid in the antenna assembly. In position 6 the coil of antenna sense relay (K1) is connected to the "Sense" line pulling the line up to +36 volts (B+) allowing the control unit to synchronize (SYNC) thus learning that the solenoid is on step # 6. I expect that when the antenna control band switch is placed in "SYNC" the solenoid rotates until position 6 where it stops. The solenoid only rotates in one direction 30 degrees per step.The antenna can be rotated continously at speeds ranging from 15 RPM to 150 RPM (depending on which mount is used) or can be manually turned CW or CCW.
The Front panel has connectors for the Indicator (Bendix PT02E-14-12S) and Pedestal (Bendix PT02E-20-24S) .
The Rear panel has connectors for Power In (ITT Canon 1S13114E8-4S) and Pedestal (ITT Canon MS3114E14-19S).
Why is the rear Pedestal connector different than the Front panel Pedestal connector?The name plate says:

It has 6 separate loop windings that can be connected by relays to operate in band numbers 1 through 5. It also has a Varactor diode to allow reasonating the antenna. The R-901/GR and R-902/GR receivers output the diode tuning voltage which is passed through the antenna indicator unit then the control unit and finally to the antenna.

The 30 deg/step rotary solenoid was made by Ledex - p/n 128558-001 date code 7913.
From their records the drive voltage is 28 VDC and a 50 millisecond pulse would be long enough to latch.
Remember that the B+ voltage is 36 (see pin # 7 above).
The 12 position, 4 deck rotary switch was made by Grayhill.The connector on the base of the AS-2360 (inside the lower tube) is a special DB15(m).
It has a coax connector in the center that has a male shield and a female center contact.
It may be a Cannon Combo D but I have not figured out their part numbering system.
Mouser carries a D-Sub Mixed Contact Connector and the 152-FM11W1S housing looks correct.
Page 165 shows these connectors. It's not clear which of 152-FMX1067, 3067, 0003P or 0003S is the correct coax insert.AS-2364 Loop Antenna - Photo
