[ARC5] Anybody have an ARC-5 /T-15 to sell?

[Bruce Long]

I understand the attraction of getting on 600 m with original equipment but I would be tempted to use a BC-348 "ARC-5" receiver- I've always liked this receivers'- steal samples of the LO and BFO, combine and amplify those signals off board and build full break in 600 m, legal limit transceiver.  You could do this either solid state or vacuum state, either (both?) would be fun and easy

Not to mention these facts about the LF/MF oscillators:

The O-16/ART-13 (part of AN/ART-13) covers 200 to 1500 kHz in six bands.
The O-17/ART-13A (part of AN/ART-13A) covers 200 to 600 kHz in three bands.

The only related thing with coverage from only 200 to 500 kHz is the first band of the AN/ARR-11 (BC-348-Q or -R) receiver for the AN/ARC-8.
