[ARC5] [Milsurplus] ARB Modifications

[Mike Everette]

AAAAAAAAK!

The guy who converted (?) this ARB installed a JAPANESE dial drive...!

These same-design vernier dial drives were used in some WW2 Japanese military radios.

By the way, Roy Pafenberg's conversions for 73 were generally very well thought out.
