The 12.6 MHz crystal is required to align the 160M band. If you don't
have one, that's probably why you have no signals on 160!! :-)
The crystal was optional, and would be in an accessory crystal socket
and selected by the XTALS switch for 160M operation.

Hello,
I'm in the process of going through a R-4B. Have already recapped the
paper and electrolytic caps and changed out of tolerance resistors.
Now it is working great from 40 meters and up. But, I have low
sensitivity on 80 meters and almost no Receive on 160. The Cal barely
moves the S-Meter on 80 and it doesn't budge on 160. I'm going to do a
complete alignment.
After looking through the manual, the section on aligning the
"Antenna, RF and Injection circuits", call for a 12.6 MHZ crystal. Is
there a work around for the 12.6 Mhz crystal? I don't have one.
Thank you in advance.
Best,
