I had a chance to looking at the model 44 schematic and yes, it is the same type of arrangement.
Just to clarify a bit, the 38-116 code 125 chassis uses the three gang, dual section per gang tuners, where there is a large section and a smaller section on each gang. Both sections are used in parallel on the 'Range 1 - Broadcast Band' and 'Range 2 - Lower Shortwave Band'.
Only the smaller section of each gang is used on the remaining three 'Ranges -Upper Shortwave Bands'. I believe that the 38-690 code 125 sets have the same arrangement.
When I get these restored, I may have to try this for myself and report back.
