About 10yrs ago it died and I'm thinking about putting her up on the bench and seeing what the matter is. I have a simple question. Does the mag tuning operate on the BC band only or will it act as an afc circuit on SW?
Tnx

Going the pickup a 37-675 tomorrow!! Tnx to Pete in NJ

Works on all bands. See the Magnetic Tuning info from my site:
