[ARC5] A part badly needed.

[Kenneth G. Gordon]

Gents:

I have been refurbing the worst of my 1.5 to 3.0 MHz. receivers here, an 
R-25/ARC-5 that had been rather badly abused, for use in my shack.

It had 1) been converted to crystal-controlled HFO, frequency unknown, 2) 
added 1N34A detector, 3) pre-audio amp made out of the 12SR7, 4) a hole 
cut in the side for a slide-switch, purpose unknown, 5) crystal-controlled BFO 
added, and a few other glorious modifications. All crystals were gone.

They did something to the HFO coil too, since even after I have put 
everything else back to original, I can't get the HFO to work.

I took the coil-box out of my OTHER more minorly-hacked, but now useable 
CBY-46104 and plugged that into the R-25, and it then works properly and 
aligns easily.

So, rather than try to reverse-engineer and fix the hacked coil-box, I am 
making a general plea for an un-hacked coil box from anyone who might 
have one.

Anyone? Please? Reasonable remuneration happily exchanged. I know 
these are somewhat rare, but someone out there must have one they would 
part with...
