[ARC5] ARC5 Digest, Vol 80, Issue 90

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

Thanks, Greg.  Andy, I saw your post but recalled that the AN/ARC-3 
maintenance manual (which I do have) is hands down the worst one I ever scanned for 
reprinting.  I did it for a friend who had loaned me some other originals 
to scan.  It covers AN/ARC-3, AN/ARC-36 and AN/ARC-49 (the latter two being 
later modifications with more and more channels).  The 266 regular (A-size) 
and 18 wide (B-size) pages aren't bad (cost and scanning labor wise).  But 
then it also has 7 of 11x24, 6 of 17x22 and 6 of 17x28 foldouts.  My automatic 
pricing code (software) thought about it for a while and came up with 
$80.00.  So I've never bothered to put it on my site or otherwise mention it.  
However, I had forgotten until Greg's post prompted me to go and look that the 
1944 Operator's Handbook does include the early system schematic (R-77, 
T-67, J-68 and C-118) all on one 11x17 foldout.  And most of the cable 
schematics.  $12.50 plus shipping.  It is on my site.

I also have all of the plugs except PL-148-A (for which you can substitute 
three standard banana jacks if you can't locate one).
