The band change switch is on the loop. The knob on the front of the
unit has
MW freq's listed on one side, and LW freq's listed on the other, 180
degrees
apart. The LW runs from just below 150 Khz to just over 300 Khz. The MW
seems to tune all the way down to 510, and up to about 1630.

Thanks!
That means they are switching more windings for LF.
I bet they use the exact same electronics in the tuner
and all the magic is in the loop. I further bet that I can
get at least 3 bands, 100~300, 300~500 and the stock
MW. It would be nice to see if it will work down to 60KHz
for WWVB all the way up to 1.8MHz or above. Since I
have a spare feritte rod, I will have to "duplicate" the
rod part and see what I can see.
I won't get around to this for a few weeks or longer, but if
it works I will post the number of turns I use and the results
I get.
