Just one last comment about this Ebay posting, below the seller states:

*"Signal Corps/Western Electric ARC-5 #9309 Radio Transmitter -
Parts/Repair**.* This unit is from a very large collection that we bought
in Maine recently. It is in good cosmetic condition, though I have not
tested the unit."



Did he really mean to type the last sentence. I know that beauty is in the
eye of the beholder, so, I guess there is no standard definition for good
cosmetic condition.

The other obvious question is: How does one test this unit? This is a bit
similar to the sellers who often state that they did not plug in the
transmitter or receiver to test it.

End of rant.
