I've got this radio electronically restored, and it works GREAT. But I've got issues with this oddball dial cord string arrangement.

I have service package for this radio, and it has a stringing diagram, but for some reason I'm just not reckoning it out. Does anyone have one of these that can take a few pics from various angles of the dial string, with special consideration to the part that goes around the tuning shaft (I realize that the tuning shaft works independent coil tuning for the spread bands)?

Thank you in advance.
