Yes, I thought of 37-116, of course.
Speaking of dials possibly rotated (shofted) it is still strange as even if I were too draw a dial by hand on a piece of paper, if I aligned it with a calibrated RF generator, no matter what dial it is, it will receive a proper station at a proper place on the scale.
If the scale is different in the way that it's longer or the dependency of frequency vs space is not linear, butr say log or whatever (depends on tuning cap geometry) then of course, it won't conform, but at least that one point you aligned the radio at will always be correct. Not shifted.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
