VERY interesting. Those are REAL MAN size connectors on the AT-12 and its power supply.
I like the looks of the AT-12 and the AR-6 and their colors. I think maybe this should be the one Allied aircraft set i keep.
Well, maybe the ARC-2 also. And the ATR-11 i suppose, because no one else would want it.
I think we should hire you to check their photo archive. Who knows what treasures hide there?

Hello Hue & Robert:
Some time ago I found the attached photo at the National Archives of Canada online. I'm not sure of copyright, etc. so I would hesitate posting in anywhere. It's obviously posed, appears as if it could be at an RCA facility (likely in Montreal); you will notice an AR-88 and more AT-12's in the background as well as an AR-6 receiver on the bench.
I'd be very surprised if a photo of the radio fit on Canadian Catalina's and Canso's didn't exist, the National Archives in Ottawa has hundreds of thousand's of photos, most of which have probably never been looked at since they were put into a file. I should be at the Canadian Forces Electronics Museum in Kingston this summer, hopefully they will let me behind the scenes so that I can do some digging and uncover a few things.
Regards,
Tom Brent
