I would first remove the dial on the radio and then reinstall it back on the radio, but put it on so it reads the correct frequency. No sense in getting into the weeds if you don’t have to.

The CBY-46145 is alive!
Looking good, so far. Sure is noisy there.
It needs more work and an alignment, but it's alive!
Just as an aside.... I can't find one station that plays music on
AM...... sigh......
Yes. It all seems to be "talk radio". Not to my liking.
Good on ya, Mark

The BC-946B arrived with the Dynamotor connector and L14 missing and
quite a few wires hanging out near those missing components.
I did some wire tracing and component testing then had a hunch that
someone may have tried to convert this to 12V, so I looked at the
filament circuit. I was right, Someone had attempted a
conversion to 12V and didn't do it right. So, I removed the
offending wires. To make a long story short, the radio is now
running on 28V and the filament voltages are what they are supposed to
be. No HV to it yet.....
