Richard, Maynard, Emanuele and anyone left.? agree Richard? ?,numbering is beyond my mental gymnastic ability.
I am now convinced that for Band 1, L3 top couples the signal-in to L3 bottom ?where C4 is, and does the resonance, and the reverse for band 2. In band 1,2 positions the coils are not grounded.? --==? the tricky ¡°notch¡±

To Maynard and Don: I have gone over the schematics of the S-85 and S-40B and after staring at them for quite a while now can't make sense of it. I am missing something, what? The two are pretty much identical. Both are confusing because, for one thing, the coils are not in the order of the bands. I am just not seeing something or have become cross eyed. I will keep at it because I just need to know. The two low frequency bands appear not to use transformers or else the primary is coupled from the other coils. Eventually, the penny will drop and I will get it.

Providing only two primary windings in the S-40B as opposed to 4 such windings in the S-40A may have saved money, but it might also have made the receiver more useful to at least some owners.
