Well.
Aligned IF to 465kHz.
I am not sure if there are two or three bands. I think, three.
I have good reception on BC (and it is close to alignment) and SW (might not be aligned but receives well with my hand for an aerial).
The third band is...not sure what it , was able to get one station while holding antenna with my hand.
I have no sch, the 41 chassis is close but only where it comes to the tubes interonnect; the coils are different, and there are padders and trimmers.
I think we can leave it at that, it receives well, especially at BC and at least one SW band.
There is the volume pot which is a bit tight, and it is a replacement one judging by the shaft. I am a bit afraid to open it, so will leave it be.
Maybe one more session Thursday, to see what switch position is what SW band and enough.
BTW, the switch is weird....the moving part has wires soldered to it. Usually this is not the case, the moving part commutates the wires on the non-moving one.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
