The CBY- and CCT-46104 covers 1.5-3.0 MC and are from the ARA set. There
is no SCR-274-N Equivalent as the AAF didn't buiy any. R-25/ARC-5 is
equivalent. However, all of the ARA and SCR-274-N receivers have substantially the
same circuits except for varying component values in the different
frequency receivers. The exception is that the audio output impedance of the ARA
receivers is around 500 ohms. The A-models of the SCR-274-N are 4000 ohms.
And the B-models can be connected for either 4000 or 250 ohms.
The ARA and SCR-274-N receivers all have a rudimentary AGC system sensitive
only to signals whose amplitude is sufficient to drive the 2nd IF tube into
drawing grid current. The AN/ARC-5 receivers have a more conventional AGC
system except that the diode rectifier is in the 12SF7 2nd IF tube. But in
any case, nothing to do with either system connects to the front connector.
So if the 2nd switch was supposed to turn off the AGC, it was a mod.
