[ARC5] AN/ARC-3 RX alignment question

You had to go and make me dig my AN/ARM-1 out of storage. :-)

The MX-294 is a 680 ohm resistor in series with a 500 mmf
capacitor. Mechanically, the components are in a little
bakelite handle assembly with two female pins that slip
over the pins of the if transformers.


Hope this helps

Jack
