[Milsurplus] [MRCG] [MRCA] WTB - Vintage Mil Aircraft Radio Components

[Ray Fantini]

Still beings up the question what would you be using it for. I thought most KC-135 had been refitted with 618T transceivers as soon as they became available being the ARC-58 was hardly the most reliable radio. The MTBF of the ARC-58 was around 400 hours and the MTBF of the 618T was 4,000 hours. 
But imagine that if you had a large aircraft that came with an ARC-58 only an ARC-58 will do. 
Going to assume that this is just for static display or Ham use being that none of this stuff would meet type acceptance these days. 

Sorry for all the questions but this is a fascinating subject.

And if you decide that a 618T/ARC-94 would work may be able to help.

They were also used on the KC-135.

Just curious, what are you restoring that's big enough to accommodate an AN/ARC-58? I thought they were only used on the B-52

All -

I'm working on the restoration of several aircraft and need the following components. If you can help, please tell me what you have and how much $$ you require for it.

Thanks !
