Philco Model 91
#30

I pulled the RF coil out and found a problem. Going clockwise from the mount/ground terminal number 1 which connects to the ant connection and 10k resistor has a broken wire hanging on the inside about 1/2 inch but doesn't connect to anything. According to the schematic is should also go thru a 25-ohm coil to ground. Also, the small coil at the top of the RF coil has broken wires and has only one wire coming up thru the main coil to cap item 6 which I believe goes to ground. The cut wire I mentioned early on is on terminal 3. My guess is that someone took out the on-off-freq switch and that would be part of that, because there is also a cut wire on terminal 4 of the detector coil.
So how do I fix this? Where does the broken wire off terminal 1 go?
Thanks,
George
