[ARC5] C-30A, ARC-5 remote Tx control surprises

[Tom Bridgers]

Was surprised to find that the C-30A I just purchased from Ebay
had been stripped, completely stripped, of ALL wiring!  Why in the
world would anyone want to do that??!!  Dunno.  Wasn't
too happy about that...but I guess it was done by the original
owner, not by the seller.  It was also missing the on/off power 
switch, but that condition was clearly shown in the eBay photos.
 
So ... I'll reconnect switch posts to the cable connectors, wire by 
wire, double checking along the way to be sure it's wired back 
correctly.  
 
If anyone by chance has the cable & plugs, or cable substitute, 
that would work between the C-30A and the MD-7 modulator, I'd be 
interested in buying it.  Please contact me.
 
The other surprise was that the mode selector switch is located 
under a "fuse like" cover on the back of the box.  Therefore a 
C-30A provides a selector switch (A-D) for the VHF Tx's, a selector 
switch (1-4) for the MW Tx's, and a mode switch (CW, Tone, & Voice).
 
If anyone needs a "fuse like" cover for their C-30A or anything else, 
several spares came with mine, and I'd be interested in trading one 
for any ARC-5's rack fuse cover.
