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

Sun Jul 11 19:59:52 EDT 2004

Hi Mike. Dave, Everybody,

I have a C-744/ARC-5 control of the same sort, contract number NOas 52-354.
190 to 550Khz so for the R-23.  Any idea what the date of that contract
was? 1952??

Dave, did you receive that FT-100 OK?

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...
