Phico 38-40 antenna coil
#3

The range 2 coil, #1 on the schematic, is out of the circuit. I connected range 1 coil as follows, connection 1 to "antenna in" lug on back of chassis, connection 2 to ground, connection 3 to grid of 6A8, connection 4 to the line to plate of 6J5.  That was my main concern that the radio would work in the AM band without that antenna coil. All of the A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, connections are not in the radio either. The band selector, #60, is badly broken. It looks like someone before me tried to make permanent connections for the AM band, bypassing this broken selector that is out of the circuit.
