Arran,


I think the first band is 2-5.5Mhz (or so) so it is a SW, at least in part. It probably covers Police and low part of SW.
The one where there is plenty of stations is the one with 5 to 17MHz or so (do not remember exact numbers).

I would take the pot apart but the radio is a bit flimsy - do not want to shake it more than necessary, the coils are, well, look really tender.

The interesting part is, it was changed before, as the shaft is that soft aluminum with longitudinal grooves, you know, the one that you cut to size (and it has been cut). I put some lithium grease at the bushing where the shaft comes out....maybe should use oil but do not have any. Well, it rotates.
