Philco 60B and 60L band switch question
#1

I got a 60B a while back that had a jumper from the bottom side of the 10k (part #1) to ground someone had put there.  I removed it and the BC band went about 50% down, but was still there, however it brought the SW band back.  I just got a 60L and both bands work fine, however there was no jumper, so I just decided to try it and the same thing.  BC band came up very good, but the SW band is virtually gone.

Is anyone else aware of this and if so, is there a way to provide the ground while the switch is in the BC band position, but remove it from the circuit when the SW band is used?  I don't really want to mess things up, but if there is an easy way to do it, I'd sure like to know.

I tried searching for any previous discussions on this, but my search terms failed to come up with anything, so I'm sorry if this has been asked before.

TIA
Brian
