[ARC5] eBay ATA item.

[Leslie Smith]

Hello All,

www.eBay.com/itm/332279504407

You can see this is an ATA set, not a member of the ARC-5 family.

I wrote to several fellows on this list who "know summat".   The
consensus was "worth restoring".   I'm interested in bidding for this,
but if anyone on this list is a collector and has an interest in this
unit they should send an email to me and I will refrain from bidding.  
I won't push up the price by bidding against a fellow list-member.

My first intent is to see this set go into "safe hands" where it will be
appreciated and preserved (in some form).
As a corollary I don't want to see this set dumped or get into the hands
of the local set-wrecker.  
It's too valuable for that.

I have a ARA nav receiver from the same contract run - in good working
condition - and this transmitter would make a nice "mate" for it, so I
do have more than a passing reason to get this item. 

I wait ....
