Just a few general notes if no answers forth coming:

1: Measure the LO with a counter at the low end (if there is no
adjustment for setting the low end of the tuning);
that will tell you if that band uses hi or lo side injection.
It makes a big difference if set wrong!!!


Not on an S-38! It probably won't track well enough to determine for sure.


2: If the osc. section of the tuning cap uses smaller sized plates, the
radio is probably hi side injection.


Ya might want to rethink that suggestion Pete. Any set with AM band on
it will have smaller osc plates.

I was recently struggling with a cheapo little SW radio and it
tracks/tunes/rejects images about the same (which means not very good)
no matter which way ya go on the upper band. Low side may have had an
edge in this particular case but it would take a jury of sharp-eared
engineers to decide.
