That could be, Mike, although at my age it is probably just CRS 
disease. I think I have read so much and heard so much 
conflicting information that it all gets mixed up in my head if I don't 
keep reading the real stuff. I haven't looked at my AN/ARC-5 docs 
in ages.

Sounds like a neat piece of gear. I DO remember the old Bendix 
TA-12 a bit.

Thanks, Mike,

Ken
