At the recent Shelby Hamfest, I spotted an ARC-5 in reasonably good condition with a dynamotor. Upon closer inspection, I realized that the name plate said it was an ARC-5X. Looking still closer I found that the receiver name plate and the dynamotor both said the operating voltage was 14 volts! Are there other characteristics about this version of the ARC-5X that I should know about? Where were the 14 volt versions of this radio used and are they of the 1940's era, or later?
Thanks in advance for your help.
