[Milsurplus] [ARC5] BC-230, 430 transmitter coils

I've had a 1944 Tech Order on the aafradio website since 2014 that 
addresses the interchangeability of these coils (among other parts of 
the set) - https://aafradio.org/docs/SCR-183-283_interchangeability.pdf

That chart isn't as readable as one I developed from it (a chart that 
addresses _only_ the  tuning coils), at 
https://aafradio.org/docs/Tuning_Coil_Sets_for_SCR-183&SCR-283.pdf

KK5F may have made some later additions to the list - my memory is a 
little fuzzy on the subject with the passage of time.  Mike, if so 
please chime in, and I'll correct the copy with attribution.

If you have only the C-xyz coil numbers, I can tell you which SCR-Ax-183 or -283 sets a particular coil number may be used.  In practice, transmitter coil sets were serialized to their specific transmitter.
