I left out the RAX-1 (CG-46115) on my list because it is not adaptable to remote control by the pilot, and I left out the RAV (CBY-46103) because it is not common.  Were either to be used with a ZB or AN/ARR-1, the RAX-1 would require the homing adapter control box and relay, and the RAV would not.  The USAAF's BC-348-series isn't usable for the same reason as the RAX-1, and more importantly it has no broadcast band coverage.  I also left out the DZ-series, the SCR-269, and other similar RDF sets.
