[Boatanchors] Spoken For: FW: Any Interest? Maintenance Instructions ARC ...

Mon Aug 19 15:23:06 EDT 2013

Just to jump the gun on my own list of needed stuff, that loop is one of the
pieces I still lack.  I also need at least one of each of the VHF antennas
and an AN/ARC-60 UHF antenna, the last named not shown.  I am in need of all
of the bulkhead mounted control boxes and, of course, mounting plates to go
with them plus the mounts for both receivers and transmitters.  With them, I
need some of the J-13 junction boxes (or the later J-15) and a passel of the
J-10 jack boxes.  

Just to add to the fun, I need the bulkhead mounted control boxes for the
early Type 15 VOR/ILS as well as several indicator heads, ones that have the
blue & yellow markings that were used with the old VAR system.  (A few
indicators had them even after the VAR system’s early demise.)  

My real list has this in better detail but this will do for now.  Anyway, if
it says Aircraft Radio Corporation on it (or, in the case of autopilot
components, includes the Sperry name) and/or has a red or blue painted or
cloisonné roundel on it, I want it.  It might say Cessna on it instead and
have no roundel but that’s okay.  It’s still ARC equipment even though a
number of purists refuse to acknowledge it.

Not really.  It's just that the Type 12 equipment never gained the
popularity that other ARC-designed (and built) equipment did, equipment like
the SCR-A*-183/-283, GF/RU, ARA/ATA. SCR-274-N and AN/ARC-5.  I have a small
list of stuff I still need to complete the setups I have planned which at
some point I'll put up here and maybe a couple other lists to see if I can
draw them in. :-)

Hello All,

Continuing to  clean out the boxes in the garage.

I have what appears to be the  complete maintenance manual for the ARC Type 
12 radio set.  Each of the  many sections is drilled for a 3-hole binder, 
but please note the holes are  larger than typical and the holes are rather 
close to the edge of what  could/should have been the binding.  There is no 
cover, so perhaps it was  removed some time ago.  Overall, it is in very
good 
condition with no  water stains, coffee mug rings and such.  There are some 
dog-eared  corners from inserting it into its original storage envelope and 
some a few of  the frontmost pages have tears right at the drilled holes.  
(See?  I  told you the holes were close to the edge...).  Many diagrams and

schematics on oversized pages - printing looks nice and clean from what I 
see  while fanning through the pages.

There are about 300 pages to the set,  according to the numbers I see in 
the lower right-hand corner of the final  pages.  The whole set is tied with

vintage string that I do not intend to  cut as I would like to keep 
everything together.

Here are some details  from the front page:

(USAF) T.O. 12R2-4-1-2
(FORMERLY AN  16-45-122)
(NAVY) AN 16-45-122

HANDBOOK
MAINTENANCE  INSTRUCTIONS

RADIO SET
ARC TYPE 12
(AIRCRAFT RADIO  CORP)

The publication is dated 5 June, 1956.

A random price of  $11 will get it sent to you via USPS Media mail in a 
padded envelope.  If  it is worth more than that, feel free to give the 
difference to a  charity.  

Best Regards,

William
