I found that L2 had a break in it which I managed to bridge and the DC resistance was thereafter more-or-less on spec - 13.5Ω against the specified 12Ω. L3 is also slightly high so the discrepancy is probably the test leads.
LW still doesn't work though and is still picking up MW signals.
However MW itself is now much improved. It was working before but not very well. As this is the first Mark I I've dealt with I'd nothing to compare it to and assumed it was par for the course.
I still can't find anything amiss with the wave switch and have also tested the low value capacitors which are switched in on LW and they all appear to be in good health.
I'm now pondering and hoping that if I leave it for a bit I'll spot something I've hitherto missed.
