There are 2 other wires, one from R3 R2 R1 common and one from the switch itself which are soldered together. I cant work out how these would have been fitted to the switch.
The basic function of S3 is to connect the common point of the range selection resistors or capacitors to the appropriate point in the circuit. The bridge between two central terminals is correct.
The soldered joint in mid air seems to suggest that a component has been removed at some time. I wonder if it might have been a preset to adjust the accuracy of the readings?
You've done an excellent job with that drawing but it would be more helpful if it was also converted to a normal schematic - I don't think you would want to work on one of your radios armed only with a wiring diagram, would you?
