[ARC5] AN/ARN-6 ADF S-meter Dzus panel question

[zakariya.abu at yandex.com]

Scott,

Perhaps Martin, the maker of the B-57, was responsible for the S-meter 
Dzus panel as it was also used on the B-57C (see the attachment). I 
thought that the S-meter panel could have belonged to the AN/ARA-19 
remote tuning group for the AN/ARN-6. I have the ARA-19 manual, but it's 
silent on the matter. So, the puzzle is still unsolved.

> The earlier control panels had S meters, latter boxes tended not.  Bendix was the original Designer/ contractee, but it was made by several companies, last version from the late fifties/early sixties was the R-101C.  The S meter box may have been an airframe manufacturer addition, so it could have been Martin, who knows.  Just a Dzus panel with a meter.
