[ARC5] Looks Very Interesting

Mike,
Thanks for re-posting the link on the Yardeny Spot Tuner.  Clearly, the the ARR-1 cannot connect to an R-24 with a C131/AR installed.

  As WB4OGM earlier posted this link, you can be the judge.  It has front 
  and side views:

  I believe it also answers your question about the spelling.

I lost the original email that started this thread so can't be sure about clearance around the adapter.  If it can't clear the MX-20/ARC-5 power adapter drawer, as well as the antenna connection, then all bets are off as the MX-20 provided all electrical connection, except antenna, between the ARR-1 and the R-24.
