NEW Question: 38 116 dial mechanism and dial scale alignment
#1

I am trying to finish this up and I am having trouble aligning the dial scale.

The mechanism has a stop at 12 o'clock on the chassis that keep the dial from spinning around more than 360 degrees (middle picture).  When I put the dial on, it stops at that position and the scale reads about 950 kc (bottom pic, the chassis top is on the right side in this photo). 

This should be the point where the scale reads either 1600 or 570 kc.  I don't see how this will work.  There is no other way I can see to put the assembly together where it lines up the way I think it should.  Does anyone know how this goes on?

Thanks,
Steve
