Inherited two wood-cased radios

These have been in my Aunt's basement for decades. She knows I like tinkering with old stereo gear, so she gave them to me.

I've never seen a Northern Electric radio before. It is a Model 650, made in Canada. It has a broadcast band (AM) and four shortwave bands. The Westinghouse is a model 577C, also made in Canada. It has an AM broadcast band and a 31 metre shortwave band.

On the back of the Westinghouse, a printed warning excerpted from legislation of the day reads: Warning. Any person installing or operating this receiving set without first having obtained a license from the Minister of Transport of Canada is liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding twenty five dollars, and the said receiving set may be forfeited to His Majesty by order of the Minister, for such disposition as the Minister may direct.

I think I have found a source for a schematic for the N. E. 650; can anyone put me onto a source for the schematic of the Westinghouse 577C?
