[ARC5] Looks Very Interesting

It would not fit. The later ARR-2 had some models with a motor to change channels rather than a spline cable.

Couldn't this Yardley gizmo be used on a Broadcast Band ARC-5 with an AN/ARR-1 connected to tune to the six channels of the YG Homing system?

The original two pole six   position switch assembly, true...you had to 
provide some sort of enclosure   for it, it had no markings on it other 
than channel numbers, and that's   not a good strategy for large scale 
installation...  However, as I   mentioned earlier this morning, there is 
a C-188/ART-13, C-189/ART-13, and   C-284/AR shown at 
http://aafradio.org/flightdeck/box.htm   - and the serial numbers for 
these number in the hundreds.  You can   recognize the first two control 
boxes as designed for the Yardney because   they have "Preset Receiver" 
channels from 1 to 6 shown on the front   panel.  The C-284 could 
reportedly be used with both the Yardney *or*   the ARR-15, and they 
dropped the channel number limitation reminder on the   front 
panel...guess you were supposed to know by now that the Yardney had   only 
six channels.

That'll work too. :-)

I have one of those as well...:'(
