[ARC5] ARC-2 Information

[Hubert Miller]

You are right except maybe for the "on at least some". This makes it sound like this was an option, maybe a minority, when in fact the exact opposite is true.
I just looked at a Boy Scout radio manual, the only manual I could find ( it didn't hide well enough ) and it talks exactly on this subject. In fact I was going to
scan and post the schematic, to rub it in, but we can skip that.

>On at least some AA5 sets there was indeed a separate internal ground buss or common, separate from the chassis itself. And there was a capacitor that went from that buss to the chassis. E.g., the Hallicrafters S-38E and others. A paralleled resistor & capacitor conntected buss & chassis. The schematic shows two different grounding symbols as a result.
