[Milsurplus] ARC-5 / BC-454 Help

[Glen Zook]

The BC-454 doesn't cover the broadcast band.  What you need is an R-24/BC-946.

I'm looking for a BC-454/ARC-5 receiver that will tune the .5 to 1.5 mc range. I need it to tune the variable IF in the receiver portion of an ARC-2 transceiver to use as a Q5'er. I don't need a collector, a user would be fine. It needs to be tunable because the IF in the ARC-2 is the Collins variable design. The bandwidth of the ARC-2 is just too broad to be useful on 75 or 40 meters. Thanks in advance for any assistance offered.
