And FWIW, the CU-351/AR that is appropriate for the AN/ARC-38 and -38A
is essentially a Collins 180L-3 with an Amphenol (rather than Cannon)
power/control connector and a Type N (rather than UHF/SO-239) RF coax
connector.
If you have an AN/ARC-94 or -102 (Collins 618T-2 or -3) that needs an
auto tuner, many were used with the CU-991/AR. That is identical to
the Collins 180L-2, including connectors. It shouldn't be too hard
to make a 180L-3 function as a substitute by bypassing the unneeded
receiver antenna switching that is in the 180L-3.
