[ARC5] ARC5 Digest, Vol 171, Issue 12

I have one or maybe two.  As I recall, they are pretty rough, probably missing the fuse holder covers (which I have none of) and probably missing the black covers for unused connectors (which I have many of).  I do recall that they are late unpainted SCR-274-N units.  Next time that I am over at Storage, I'll take a look at them.

There was an article in a late 1958 QST ( I think ) on converting a BC-454 and a BC-455 to a 455kc output which would feed a BC-453 resulting in a double conversation receiver with (so claimed) vastly improved performance with low cost surplus gear.
I built the BC-455 into BC-453 and it worked very well for the $10 I'd invested in it.
I never finished it because college and grad school got in the way.

I am now retired and intend to finish it. 
Does anyone have a 3 receiver rack they can part with?
