26d in check
29a concept
25a Radiation (transmission of Energy) = ration (limit) "outside" Dia(meter)
On looking at the puzzle, I see that some clues contain a sequence of letters which must be removed prior to solving (here 24 and 28).

4 (C ('see') USA 'American army')) in ACTION ('battle')
25 RATION ('limit') containing ('outside') DIA ('diameter')
29 CONCERT ('performance') with P ('piano') for R ('choiR's final piece')

24 [cur]RENT containing ('overwhelms') an anagram of ('unfortunate') MAN
26 DECK without D ('BluebearD finally') following ('under') INCH (see 'inch' in Chambers)
28 SH ('StretcH externally') replacing ('for') W ('women') in WELL[ie]S
