Yes. Thank you, Robert.

I remembered that almost the instant I hit "send" and it was too late to take it 
back. :-)

I had an ARC-1 once and considered it to be one of the nicest VHF rigs I had 
seen up to that point. It was far better than the SCR-522....one of which I 
also had.

Although, of course, the ARC-1 was a much later development.

Gotta hand it to the developers of the '522. I suspect they were working on 
"the bleeding edge" of radio capability of the time.
