Hi Gus and welcome,
Just a couple of quick notes. On my 660 I had a tracking/poor adjustment on the oscillator on the BC band. Note that the BC and Police oscillator trimmers are reversed on the original literature. It is referenced in the notes but you have to look for it. Drove me nutz for quite a while.

You may be able to find a replacement ant coil from Play Things Of The Past. Gary had a parts chassis (I got the osc coil which I didn't end up needing)

figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
