I dunno why someone might want an ARN-5, but i have one in
very good condx. EXCEPT i am going to plunder the 6AJ5 tubes
out of it. Otherwise pretty low cost. FOB zippy 97365.

Digressive anecdote time: I recall in the mid 1980s crawling in
the crawl space above the Zinn's garage in Seattle, where there
seemed to be dozens of ARN-5s, maybe left over from his days
running the surplus store in West Seattle. In the basement of 
the house were tons of new boxed Navy spare parts kits. Also
several new crated MN-26s. Part of a control panel from the
cockpit of a B-17. But- i could only get over there by 
infrequent invitation, and those eventually declined to zero.
I still wonder where all that stuff went. I never heard of a 
ripple on any of Seattle's second hand, etc. usual haunts.
