Glad to hear you've got her up and running well! The tone/off/on switch isn't a Philco "quirk". Zenith comes to mind as having that setup on some of their radios. Makes sense to have volume control "set" and just adj the tone.
Have you replaced the bad rubber wiring (as needed)? Lots of times a cleaning of the band switch may resolve inoperative shortwave band if the set works otherwise.
