The only place I've been able to obtain such items in 35 years of searching
for ARC-2 items is on ebay.  I've seen several there in the past few years,
and have obtained two C-244A units, one each for my RT-91/ARC-2 and my
RT-298/ARC-2A units.

But, it's about like the control box for the AN/ART-13 (even uses the same
mounting plate as the C-87), in that it provides absolutely nothing that
isn't available on the local contol panel.  I just wanted them for a
complete "system."

The AN/ARC-2 is my favorite "almost" WWII-vintage aircraft HF set.  The
construction quality of the RT-91/ARC-2 seems to be much better than that of
the later "improved" (but obviously reduced manufacturing cost)
RT-298/ARC-2A.
