WWII U.S. T-18 / ARC-5 Radio Aircraft Transmitter 2.1 - 3 MC Ham Radio

Description

This is a WWII vintage T-18 / ARC-5 Transmitter that was intended for use in Aircraft, covering the 2.1 - 3 MC range. It appears to be unmodified, with the tubes and calibration crystal as shown in the pictures. Most of the small screws holding the case are missing, as shown in the pictures.
The CQ Magazine book "Command Sets" has info about how to convert "The Scarce 2.1 - 3.0 MC Transmitter" to the 160-Meter Band. The book is often available on eBay, and is also available for free on-line download from W7EKB's site.
It requires a separate power supply - it was originally used with a separate Dynamotor/Modulator unit. Many of these have been converted to Amateur Radio transmitters and VFOs, with numerous conversion information articles in many books and ham magazines.
It is not tested and is sold as-is due to its age. If you need more information, there appears to be plenty on-line about this Transmitter.

Shipping charges will be .85 to CONUS ONLY locations, based on other similar ARC-5  Transmitters and electronic equipment items of similar size and weight that I've recently shipped.
Free local pickup is available, but PayPal cannot be used for payment if you're picking up the item, since PayPal needs proof of shipment to be covered under their rules.
Any International sales must use eBay's International Shipping Program service, where I ship the unit to their forwarding center, and eBay takes care of the necessary customs, etc. paperwork, and then they ship onward to the buyer. No Direct Overseas Sales! No shipping to Germany, due to their new seller and shipping requirements.
Because of the shipping arrangements that are done out-of-state, I am not able to combine shipment of multiple items. I ship within five days of the end of the sale and receipt of the payment.
Shipping is ONLY to a PayPal Confirmed Address. It is the responsibility of the BUYER to make sure the address listed on their account is correct.  Please update your account address before buying, as I cannot send items to a different address than the one provided on your account.
Please understand that once I've dropped off an item to be shipped, I have no further control of when it will actually arrive at your location. Occasionally, the shipping company routes the package through some far, out-of-the-way locations which can greatly delay the shipping time, compared to what eBay quotes for delivery times.
Please see my other eBay listings for additional Amateur Radio, Test Equipment and Electronic items.
Thanks for looking!
