I have photographs of a B-29 in Korea service
circa about 1950 with SCR-274N and ART-13 installed.
One thing we have learned- just about any combination
of equipment you can dream up was used by somebody
at one time or another.
There is no single, "historically correct" installation. If they needed a radio and
they could rip it out of an old wreck,
they'd haywire it in and use the
"correct" installation instructions
as a door stop.
