Still trying to track down 2 items to help complete the static restoration of the AT-6 at the Chanute Air Museum in Rantoul Illinois. http://p51h.home.comcast.net/~p51h/at6b/index.htm
We have nearly all appropriate radio/intercom equipment except these two pieces. Examples do not have to work and even some missing parts or minor damage may be acceptable.

This is a BC-456-B Modulator (Power Supply) unit. Suffix A thru M are mostly identical. Navy units are known as MD-7/ARC-5 or Type CCT-50083. Units come natural metal finish, black wrinkle or sometimes painted gray or blue. See Image above. Variants have either 4 or 5 connectors; either is okay. These were used extensively during and after WWII in Army and Navy A/C's. One of these might be in your junk parts box. Any condition may be of value, even parts-pieces. :shock:

This second Item is a BC-327 Radio/Intercom Switch Box. It was a GFE part used in many trainer, bomber and transport aircraft. Would like a complete unit but I'd be happy to find just the faceplate in decent condition.

Would love a donation, or trade for something from our trade pages here>>> http://p51h.home.comcast.net/~p51h/at6b/sale/sale.htm
or here>>> http://p51h.home.comcast.net/~p51h/at6b/trade.htm

Happy to report a WIX member has stepped up and a trade has been arranged for the BC-456 Modulator I need for the Texan restoration.

Still looking for a BC-327 Radio-Intercom switch. Just about any condition will work. Anyone?
