Assuming that this is a strangely indirect way of specifying the later SCR-274-N (which was the only system that was produced in unpainted aluminum), only the BC-946-B (.52 to 1.5) exists.  There is **no** unit for 1.5 to 3.0 MHz in the SCR-274-N.

Similarly, only the BC-457-A (4.0 to 5.3) exists.  There is **no** 2.1 to 3.0 MHz unit in the SCR-274-N.

The wikipedia article on AN/ARC-5 has a table which clearly shows what units existed in the ARA/ATA, SCR-274-N, and AN/ARC-5 systems.  It can be helpful for making a list by specific nomenclature.  The only way that a reader can tell that the SCR-274-N is the system of interest to you is your specification of aluminum finish.
