A.R.C. took a short break from building AN/ARC-5 in 1944
to build contract NXsa-53321 ATA transmitters, probably
as replacements or for a special application.
There is one available at item #6576008963.

You'll notice the front cover is ARC-5 style, which
is the only physical difference I've noticed between
these and the more common second-generation sets.
This is the third example I've seen, all of which were
for 2.1-3.0 MC.  I speculate from this that a
special application is likely, though I admit
three examples is thing sampling.

In any event- Wanted to point it out in case
you, like me, go for the "odd-ball" sets.
(I won't be bidding on this one)
(unless it goes too cheap ;-).
