Actually that looked like a pretty fair, even cheap price for everything
included. This past weekend I paired up a decent ARA 46145 receiver &
dynamotor with a C-26 box & MT-7A/MT-5 rack & shock I had sitting around,
wouldn't sell the package for 4-5 times that amount. Also dug out a stock
BC-453 and HB supply to use for LF/beacon reception. Wouldn't sell that for
anything close, either. The days of regularly finding these things at
hamfests or Fair Radio NIB or in even good condition for $10 are long gone.
And gasoline isn't 29.9 cents a gallon anymore either.

I would be interested in that "T" he has in the control cable. Perhaps we

Interesting, indeed. And clearly an ARC part by the stamped logo.

Question is, what receivers would you have set up to be tuned in unison and
why? I suppose you could use it to tune multiple receivers to different,
pre-determined frequencies but it would take some careful calibration up
front. Of course, assuming a control box that would switch out/mute one
receiver for another, you could always touch up the tuning if needed after
switching.

First one I've ever seen. But I'm no expert, either. (o:
