37-116 Switch Wafer Illustrations
#2

Does the set under consideration have issues with the bandswitch?? For the most part if the BS is bad it's a big deal to get to it as it's buried in the RF sub chassis. If it's OK then I just assume that it's doing it's thing and not be too concerned about it. You may want to drop Chuck a note and get the factory service information this may shed some light on the positions of BS.
The 37-116 is a wonderful set with excellent fidelity!! Too bad there's not much to listen to that will show quality that is in this set.
Hope you get it! Once it's been serviced you won't be disappointed with it's performance!
There are a number of folks here that have done the service work on this set. I did one about 30yrs ago. I picked up another 37-116 but this one is code 121 about a year ago. It's on my long list to get it serviced. Most of the 37-116 are code 122 known as the deluxe model. The code 121 is the standard (no dial presets and has a shadow meter). Mike (Morzh) just finished his set a month or so ago. He's VERY HAPPY with his set.
GL and hope you get it or one!
