[ARC5] ATA Transmitter Control Box

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

Mac,

All three of the standard MF/HF transmitter control boxes (NT-23243, BC-451-A 
& C-30/ARC-5) are the same in this regard.  They all control up to four 
transmitters.

ARA only included 2- and 3- receiver racks and control boxes.  RAV included 
two 4-receiver racks but no control boxes.  AN/ARC-5 has a 4-receiver rack 
(MT-67/ARC-5) but no 4-receiver control box that I know of.

The ATA/ARA manual mentions that it is possible to set up a 4-transmitter 
installation by modifying the second of two 2-transmitter racks.  In the AN/ARC-5 
racks, there is provision for changing the channel number of any transmitter 
position without getting into the wiring box.  And AN/ARC-5 included the 
4-transmitter rack MT-75/ARC-5.  But I've never seen one of them.
