[Milsurplus] ARC-1 Control Head Wanted

[Hubert Miller]

I hope when you get this pretty well wrapped up, you'll post something here about the project.
Do you have anyone else around there you can talk to on 2M AM ?
I have long thought this VHF rig was a pretty neat radio. But on 2M would be totally useless where I am.

I'm in the process of restoring an ARC-1 transceiver (VHF AM) and I'm in need of a C-45/ARC-1 Control unit.   I can always build something from scratch, but obviously would prefer the real article.  There are three control units designed for the RT-18*/ARC-1, and they're electrically interchangeable.

C-45/ARC-1  Box mounted using MT-4/ARR-2 on bulkhead.
C-115/ARC-1 Early USN 5-inch panel, slotted edges for fasteners.
C-865/ARC-1 Standard 5.75-inch panel, Dzus fasteners.

Anyone have one they'd like to part with? (or know where one might be found)?  In the event someone has a complete radio, control, etc. vs. just a spare control head, I'd be interested in that as well.  Let me know.
