[Swan] cygnet 270 question

[kce]

Hi Chris I already checked out that portion of the radio and made sure 
the -100 v was present as well. I am just trying to make sense out of the 
rotary switch action for that position of the switch. Looking at it it looks 
like the top portion of the switch simply grounds or opens different 
circuits depending on the position. Can someone verify this?
