[ARC5] Wanted: Rear box from otherwise trashed MT-71/ARC-5

[J Mcvey]

 Mac,

I feel your pain! It took me few years to find a decent un-hacked MT-71. Even when I did, a cousin to your doofis had replaced one of the transmitter plugs with a SCR-274 type and trashed the internal wiring. Fortunately, the guy who sold me the rack also had a destroyed MT-71 with a good ARC-5 plug he harvested to include with the deal. 
In short, I got lucky!

I don't know where all the ARC-5 racks went ( unless David has them, hi hi), but they and their plugs are rare as hens''s teeth. 
The only thing that worked for me was a "Saved search" on Ebay which notified me when a MT-71 got listed.

Jim, AC2EU

Also have a MT-69/ARC-5 for sale or trade,  A different doofus removed the smaller 5-pin connector and replacedwith a 7-pin male Amphenol connector.
