While looking for another document, I ran across T.O. 08-40SCR-1, an 
interesting six page document entitled "Interchangeability of Components 
- Radio Sets SCR-SERIES-183 and SCR-SERIES-283".  It lists all the sets 
from the original SCR-AA-183 to the last in the line - SCR-AR-283, along 
with all their components like tuning units, dynamotors, etc.  I had no 
idea that there were so many tuning units for this pair of sets...52 
different receiver coil sets and 48 for the transmitters!  Unfortunately 
it doesn't give any frequencies for any of these components...just 
matrices of interchangeability, but it's a start for understanding the 
relationships.  I uploaded it to the documents page at 
http://aafradio.org/docs/docs.html under "Operational Notes" for anyone 
interested. 

Apropos the subject, anyone have TM-AE-172 lying around? :-)
