[ARC5] ARC5 Digest, Vol 77, Issue 3

Thu Jun 3 13:57:58 EDT 2010

Just between you and me;
I think your time would be better spent on another project.
The unit isn't readily useful for anything unless you have
an unusual interest in glide-slope receivers,
and I'd think that would wear thin quickly.
You only have so much time, and the fact that
it is A.R.C.-made isn't enough, in my opinion,
to spend that time on such a basket case, especially one
with so little relevance to history (Sorry, Mike T.).
Work on something you'll enjoy more.
YMMV, etc.
73 Dave S.
