[ARC5] Shock mounts

[Michael Hanz]

Funny you should ask.  I had started writing a little bit about the ARC 
shock units back before Christmas and had taken apart a couple of the 
units to see what made them tick.  They are certainly more complicated 
than they appear.  Those 2Z**** numbers are Signal Corps stock numbers, 
better known by the ARC/WECO numbers 5195 and 7068.

I put together a brief web page on the subject to show the piece parts 
and other characteristics, and can provide measurements for them if you 
wish - https://aafradio.org/garajmahal/command_set_shock_units.html
