[ARC5] AN/ARC-52 manual FTGH

[scottjohnson1 at cox.net]

Jack-
The ARC-27/55, ARC-52, ARC-51 (all Collins), and ARC-33 (Bendix) will all tune (channelize) into the 220 amateur band.
I haven't tried any of the newer radios, I suspect anything with a PLL won't without some mods.
I am going to try the ARC-109 and ARC-34 at some point.

Just received a 3" thick set of manuals for the AN/ARC-52. NAVWEPS and NAVAER

16-30ARC52-501, -502, -503, and -504.  Looks complete and in good shape for its age.

Anyone want them?  Will even pickup Media Mail postage.

I don't think I'll ever be firing one of these up, I already have an AN/ARC-55, so don't

need another large UHF radio. (Currenty working on an AN/PRC-14 FAC radio for the

ARC-55 to talk to).

I do have a curiosity question for someone familiar with the ARC-52.

Both the ARC-27 and ARC-55 will tune below 225, in fact the manual says

to use 224.8 as one of alignment frequencies.  Does this hold true of the

ARC-52? Is it capable of operation below 225.0?

Thanks.
