[ARC5] AN/ARC-12

[scottjohnson1 at cox.net]

There was a time when I would have jumped on that! Looks like the UHF
version of an ARC-1.  The 2C39 was certainly an enabling technology for a
practical UHF aircraft transmitter.  The most interesting thing about that
tube is that 80 years later it is still being manufactured by Eimac!
Note that the PAs in the ARC-12, 19, 27, and 33 were all very similar.

ARC-12 and ARC-type-12 are often confused.
If one wishes to get a look at an actual AN/ARC-12, there is one at:

Not mine, etc. but there are some neat pictures and the seller is a good
guy.
