I have a T-16 NOS in the box. Opened only for inspection. It going to the
'E' place. "David Stinson" wrote in message news:bJDvd.3553$Zn6.2981@trnddc08... God bless you; you're just the man I'm looking for. Do you have any idea what the MF ARC-5 transmitters were for? These are the rare : T-15, 500-800 KC T-16, 800-1300 KC T-17, 1300-2100 KC The latest theory is that they were used in joint maneuvers with third-world allied navies, where were still using the 1920s-agreed navy frequencies below 2 MC. There so much I would love to ask you about these sets, if you don't mind the trouble. I'm a serious historian of the Command Set series and gentlemen like yourself are a treasure to find. 73 DE Dave Stinson AB5S Spike wrote: Nostalgia. When drafted into the Navy is 1943 my first job was setting up ARC-5 transmitters and receivers in 336 SNJ (AT-6) aircraft. (among other things) Later after the war when there wasn't much money around, I would rewind ARC-5 receivers and use them for ten-meter converters. In those days tapping on the case of just about any transmitter or receiver would produce some modulation. Except for Collins equipment. The ARC-5 VHF transmitters were truly awe inspiring when they arrived. 73s W6BWY |
