OK, I stand corrected. For some reason I thought that the early VHF  
set was also called ARC-2.

When I use the RT-91/ARC-2 on CW, I have to use an external audio  
filter as the IF is extremely broad and varies with the input frequency.
A SCAF-1 filter does a world of a difference.

The power/control plug is available, I bought 2 - one for the ARC-2  
and one for the ARR-15 receiver which uses the same connector. I  
forgot who I bought them from.
