See an overview article for these sets at:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARC-5

That site has a discussion of the overall usage and organization of these
systems (but little technical detail of individual components), including the
ARA/ATA, SCR-274-N and AN/ARC-5 command sets, plus the ZB and AN/ARR-2 homing
systems.

Best of all it has links at the bottom to pdf versions of the SCR-274-N and AN/ARC-5
LF/MF/HF military maintenance manuals.

Ignore the pointless links at the bottom referring to the AN/ART-13, BC-348, and
Wireless Set No. 19.  These have nothing to do with the sets discussed in the article.
No doubt someone "helpful" will soon tack on reference to the BC-610, R-390/URR,
and RT-841/PRC-77!
