And all this time I thought I was being funny and amusing! Certainly a nice surprise to come home to after a week+ up north trying to get mom moved to assisted living. No joy, heading back next month for more fun.

Thanks Nick - will look forward to picking up my mail next week. And yes - Caitlin will indeed share in the joy as she loves the basement radio station and thinks the ARC-5s are the "cute radios with little faces".

This original manual is going to Todd KA1KAQ who wrote a heart-rending plea involving re-capture of his youthful enthusiasms, examples of his outstanding service to the hobby, photos of his family who will share in his joy of ownership, etc. etc. Brought a tear to my eye….

if you need this manual for your ARC-5, Robert WA5CAB has excellent copies for sale (all Robert’s copies are excellent!).
Best regards

I have come across an original AN/ARC-5 manual NAVAER 08-5Q-95 - 21 Feb 1944. 

Is there a pdf on the web somewhere? If not, let me know and I’ll scan this one before mailing it to a new home. 

As usual, in the event of multiple requests I’ll make an arbitrary decision based on factors like-
A good story about why you want it
Your past helpfulness to me and others
Your contributions to list discussions
Phase of the moon or other random factors 

If you send a message that only says “I want it” you are unlikely to have your wish fulfilled. 

Remember - Books can cure ignorance, but not stupidity. 

Cheers
