I just remembered that I had weak reception on the LOWER part of the band when I finished recapping my 42-355. Chuck Schwark suggested that I might have an open antenna coil. I did. It was an easy repair, and it fixed my reception problem.

You might try to see if the push button tuning brings in your upper frequency stations. If the push buttons can tune in the higher frequencies, then it'll be a clue about what's going on.
Can you receive SW across the band?
