Wanted: MC-215 Drive Cable

Tue Apr 26, 2016 12:43 pm

I'm looking for at least 1 ea MC-215 Drive Cable for an ARC-5/SCR-274 radio system. Length is not important. It does need to have one good end, including the spline fitting and the attach nut. As log as I can get accurate measurements off of it, I'll be happy. If you have one or more that you are willing to sell, pm me. An alternate item would be a MC-211 Right Angle Drive Adapter.

If you don't get a WIXer response, check with Jay Wisler. He usually has them in stock. Not cheap, but available.

Dean: I've sent him an email to see if he has them, as his list is a little wonky on the cable information. I will hopefully hear back before the end of the week. Last time I sent him an email, it was a few weeks before I got a response.

Mike Hans has some excellent information on his web site about the flexible shafts. I bet you might just find your answers here:

Thanks Taigh for that link, it will help. The one thing that it doesn't have, though, are dimensions for the spline coupling. With that, I can have coupling either cold headed or sinker EDM'd as necessary. If I don't hear from Jay in the next week or so, I'll give him a call and see what I can find out from him on his cables. IF that isn't any success, I can always get a parts radio and pull the drive from it and measure.
