The radio / Phono switch and RCA Jack are likely mods. These were very common as many manufacturers sold phonograph attachments without amplifiers. The fact that it is an RCA jack means that the mod was made sometime after 1940 or so.
Make sure that you clean the switch. This mod is very handy as it is a great "divide and conquer \" point. Connect a computer or MP3 audio (or a phono) to this jack, switch to phono and fire up the radio when you have sufficiently checked the radio out. Good audio indicates that the audio section works. Bad or no audio indicates that you start troubleshooting there and / or at the power supply.
