Zenith 6S527 E-cap ?
#10

Try this schematic in the link below. The adjustments have the same labels as your model and are in same part of the circuit.

This is one of those models where you align the SW Osc at 18MHZ first followed by the BC band and then SW ant at 16 MHz last. SW Osc should be 455khz above 18 if using a counter. This way the image is 910 KHz below.

I often tune the SW ant for most ambient noise if you don't have a sig gen that goes that high.

I can tell you that if you don't have a good outside antenna, SW is pretty much dead lately. Look for WWV on 10 or 15 as they are a good reliable signal.

Hope this helps.
