I have developed several parts kits to aid in the restoration of the venerable ARC-5 command set. This video showcases a restored radio and the conversion philosophy as well as the components. My goal was to rebuild the radio with an inverter, to supply the 250 DC B+ and to modify the tube filaments to 12 volt DC, in order to operate the radio from a standard 12 volt DC station supply. The conversion process takes approximately 6 hours. You may contact me with questions or a parts price list at [email protected] I also supply other add on parts for older Collin's Radio gear, tom, N3LLL For more information Kits List Schematics etc. visit
