[ARC5] Evolution to "In The Panel" Control Boxes

[Mike Hanz]

Dave brings up an interesting development in both the ARC-5 and general 
aircraft radio lineage.  As a matter of fact, there are several boxes in 
that same format that are 'ARC-5 related'.  Besides the C-125, there is 
the C-126, C-127, and C-137.  Pictures of the C-125 thru 127 are on the 
webpage - http://members.cox.net/aafradio/ - click on "flight deck", 
then at the bottom of the "ARC-5 Forever" group (Boxing Day).  The 6" 
modular concept was one of those head slapping  "what were they 
thinking, before this came along?" kind of things...

73,
Mike
