[ARC5] Looks Very Interesting

[Jay Coward]

Many aircraft had an accessory jack for LM frequency meter use on the main junction box for radio equipment.(I read this somewhere). That could take the place of the jack on the R-24 and a standard rx panel adaptor used instead. So, your idea still might work.

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.

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.
