Guys, agreed for L3? , but the connections to L6 ?don¡¯t have a source wire shown and don¡¯t have the same switch profile for grounding so the L6 area is a big part of the mystery.
The switch profiles and pointers [whatever each is called properly] seems clear enough on the drawing, so that is not inquestion?
The S-40A, changes? to get to the S-40B ?might offer some clues.? Is there an S-40 manual? What does it show.
Another thought; it is easy to add ,subtract, and change caps and resistors, but changing a big stock of custom band-switches might rattle the cage of the bean counters, and won¡¯t be easily accepted, or might be a lot of work [what do they stock?, and does halli build switches from various ?wafer sets?].
Even those custom coils might be hard to change.
Note that L3 and L6 don¡¯t have the same part number.

Hi, Emanuele,
This would not be an unusual way to wind a transformer of the types like L3 and L6, especially if there is a turns ratio much higher than unity. That might be the case in these receivers, but we aren't told that by the available literature.
