Today's special
#4

I doubt you will get the dial calibration to be spot on. The later Philco's have very approximate dial accuracy. I would try to get it to tune 1600 at the fully open position of the tuning cap and be done with it. You can then try carefully bending the outer osc section plates to bring 1400 closer to cal, but I would not expect much improvement.

The 1930's Philcos have spot on dial calibration, but the post war models in general are not very precise. I guess they no longer considered it important.
