Thanks. I will be doing some more testing tonight. The coil was tapped with the help of a grid dip. Hopefully, I was close.
Looking at the photograph of the band switch on post 41, the interconnecting wires look rather long, and of small gauge. Short wires, with minimum possible inductance and resistance are desirable here. It is preferable to keep most of the inductance of the tank local to the coil, and not the interconnecting wiring.
A suggestion to improve the efficiency and stability of the pi tank would be to rotate the entire switch assembly clockwise 90 degrees (looking at it from the back). Doing this would allow you to shorten all the wires, especially the common wire to the loading capacitor. Perhaps also use a larger gauge wire, or copper strap, to reduce losses. The wires need not be insulated, as long as they do not touch each other. This improvement has the most benefit on the higher frequency bands, where the switch wiring is a significant portion of the total inductance.
