Looking at the Preliminary Pilot's Manual for the SB2C-5 aircraft, dated 1 May 1945, it shows pilot's radio controls as follows:
C-127/ARC Master Control Panel
C-124/ART-13 MHF Transmitter Control Panel
C-115/ARC-1 VHF Equipment Control Panel
C-126/ARC MHF Receiver Control Panel
C-116/ARR-2A Homing Receiver Control Panel
C-114/APX-2 IFF Control Panel
CVA10139 Microphone Holder
SA-1/ARN-1 (or -1A) Altitude Limit Switch
So it appears that the Yardley Tuner was used in the SB2C. When I first saw this I thought it absurd that an ART-13 was installed in a two seat aircraft, but with an ARC-5 as the MF receiver I guess it makes more sense.
