There is no such thing as a "T-20/ARC-12" unit. You have made a fairly 
common mistake in confusing the ARC Type 12 equipment with the military 
AN/ARC-12 which is a whole different animal. ARC Type 12 is COMMERCIAL 
nomenclature, NOT AN nomenclature. So...

If you will do a Google search using the terms " "ARC Type 12" T-20 " 
without the outer parentheses, you should get 37 hits. The one hit that 
contains the T-20 term is a PDF document. For some reason, trying to 
download the PDF file locks up my computer. You can use the HTML 
download option but that produces a document that is barely legible. One 
blurb in that document is reproduced herewith:

T-20 VHF TRANSMITTER
(118-148 mc)
20 channels divided between any two 2-mc
bands. 2.5 watts, amplitude modulated. Weight,
ft pounds. Range, 100 miles at 10,000 feel or
ahme. Normally used with ARC Type R-19
Receiver, Remotely controlled
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE ABOVE WAS CUT & PASTED, NO EXTRA CHARGE FOR TYPOS!

Here is the URL for the PDF document; maybe you will have better luck 
than I when trying to download it: 
http://www.bunkerofdoom.com/lit/ARC_1960_cat.pdf.

Apparently, that is a 1960 ARC catalog that would be handy to have IF 
the PDF could be downloaded. I'm using Acrobat version 9, perhaps the 
PDF was created using an earlier, incompatible version.

Good luck!
