hmmmmmm.....  I'll have to do some more digging,
but knowing you, Mike, you're probably exactly right.
I know you are when it comes to the ARB in Command use,
and the ARC-5 for that matter, a fact which is a 
pain in the pah-toot when you're operating them 
as a set, by the way.  
But again- whatever their original design role,
I stand by the use of these sets in an ELINT role
at some point.  

And there is this: We have lots of original
wiring diagrams for using the ARB and R-26 in 
a liaison role; why don't we have any for RAX?
