 Looking at your link, I never realized that some of the RAV (CBY) series went above 9.1 MHZ.I guess they were 28 volt?Probably very broad BW?

FWIW, four years ago I posted this document which shows coil and major capacitor frequency ranges and part (drawing) numbers for all variants of "command set" units:

The tables in the above document need a correction:  The frequency range of the 1958 A.R.C. Type 12 receiver R-22 is 0.55 to 1.6 MHz, not the .52 to 1.5 MHz range of all earlier broadcast band receivers.
