Description: Radio Set ARC-33 is an airborne command, receiving-transmitting equipment designed for air-to-air and air-to-ground voice communication in the UHF range. Primary application of the equipment is for voice communication in fighter aircraft at altitudes up to 50,000 feet. This equipment is normally operated with remote Control Panel C-784/ARC-33, which automatically increases the gain of the modulator speech amplifier with increase in altitude. The control also permits presetting of any 20 channels of the total range of frequencies. One guard channel in the 238- to 248-megahertz range can be monitored simultaneously with normal operation of the equipment. Flush-tail cap-type arrays, Antenna AT-256A/ARC, or any other UHF antenna having a 52-ohm coaxial transmission line, such as Radio Frequency Cable RG-8/U, can be used. The receiver-transmitter component has been modified for use with Direction Finder Group ARA-25. Remote Channel Indicator ID-572/ARC and associated Control Box C-2006/ARC-33 are designed for use with the ARC-33 installed in fighter aircraft to enable the pilot to select a channel without having to look away from the flight instruments. Additional aircraft wiring is required for this function. This equipment is interchangeable with, as well as operationally and physically similar to Radio Set ARC-27.
