Hi Chris

I can help you on some of this...

1. No, the extra .047 uF cap should not be in the tone control circuit, and should be removed. There are two capacitors inside the tone control - .01 & .015 uF. These are the only caps in the tone control circuit, and should be replaced if you have not done so already.

2. You must mean resistor (1), 10K, which connects across two terminals of the band switch, with wires from each end of the resistor also going to the antenna coil.

3. Sounds like you need a photograph of a known good, or properly wired, Model 60 chassis. Unfortunately I am not in a position right now to furnish such a photo (I have a Model 60 chassis, but it is not here with me).

Bear in mind also that there were a lot of changes made to the Model 60 chassis over its three-year production run. So much so that I posted an "Evolution of the Model 60" page on my website.
