Gene-

Converting a modern frequency-synthesized radio to receive different
frequencies may be possible, but quite a neat trick.

A simpler approach would be to buy or build an external tuner. It could
be crystal-controlled, switching between crystals for different
frequencies. It could use only one crystal and use the existing radio's
tuner to select different frequencies.
