FWIW, there's a fairly complete cross-reference listing of the "normal"
ARA, SCR-274-N, and AN/ARC-5 transmitters, receivers, and some accessories
in a table that's shown at:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARC-5

The table does not include units that did not made it out of the development
phase, like VHF SCR-274-N (BC-695/699, -942/950), A.R.C. VHF AN/ARC-5
(R-112, -113, T-89, -90/ARC-5), prototype MF/HF receivers R-20, -21, and
-22/ARC-5, etc.), nor does it include equipment from the pre-war RAT, RAV,
or post-war A.R.C. Type 12 gear.
