John,

I left off the column headers (added below).

Unfortunatately (in this case), the audio transformer, RF choke and Audio 
choke each carry the same A.R.C. part numbers.  At least according to the 
manuals.

The easiest ID'er (of those requiring removal of covers) is pin 8 on the 
2nd IF tube socket.  If it's grounded, the receiver is from AN/ARC-5.  If it 
isn't, then not.  But the 12SF7 has filament on 7 and 8, like the 12SR7.  So 
don't just look for a socket with pin 8 grounded.
