I haven't had the set out in a long time, 20 years or more, that band worked at the time I put it away. The problem with the model 60 is that without the police band working you don't receive the upper end of the AM broadcast band, it stops at 1500 KC or slightly above, so if there isn't anything to hear at the upper end of the B.C band then it doesn't matter. Maybe it was the antenna coil I was thinking of, I may have conflated that with the oscillator coil, my guess is that maybe there is something not right with the band switch as what should happen is that it should shunt the B.C band section to ground to kill that part whilst you are on the police band. I don't know if these sets have mica cap issues or not. Could it have something to do with the rewound section of the antenna coil? I once got two terminals mixed up on an oscillator coil in a G.E, where I only got one station, but in that set it only had one band. Maybe it's best to step back and think about what work you did last, on coils and band switches, it's easy to get clockwise, and anti clockwise positions mixed up with the terminals.
