It's been over a year since I looked at Pride diagram and it feels good seeing it again with more experienced eyes. The cap & inductor pairs to ground switched in parallel to a direct grid driving connection post resistive ground is curious. I expected an all or nothing switch-action but the diagram shows a direct connection from resistive load to grid no matter what band is selected. Resistive and Inductive parallel to each other to RF ground. I think I get it.

Curious swamping R's (2x 1500 resistors) goes to ground via capacitor through bias choke. Edits writing helps me figure it out.
