[ARC5] [Milsurplus] Relays

[Michael Hanz]

Hi Mark,

Definitely ARC style relays.  The ceramic insulation is pretty 
distinctive.  Not sure of all their uses, but I have a crystal frequency 
selector hulk with ten of them arrayed behind the twenty crystal 
sockets.  One larger DPDT relay selects which bank of ten can get 
selected.  I suspect they're from a postwar ARC set, but I don't collect 
those.

If anyone can use this assembly, let me know.
