I just finished up the chassis on this set and did an alignment as shown in the service information below:

The radio plays great and the dial is right where it should be on the A band or broadcast....except I cannot get the local station which is at 1470 kc to come in! Everything else is where it should be. I did the alignment procedure several times just to be sure and each time had the same results.
BUT....
1470 comes in loud and clear at the beginning of the B band!
I think because the two bands overlap (A covers 540 to 1500 kc, and B or the police band covers 1450 to 3500 kc), the very high end of the broadcast band comes through on the police band!
This is the only radio I have with that phenomenon.
