The chassis mount 15k resistor should arrive today.  Once I have that installed I plan to do the entire alignment procedure (yet again!) and then I'm prepared to put everything into the cabinet and call this project complete.  AM works well.  FM works well.  Phonograph works well.  The only performance problem I've seen is that there are a couple of FM stations at the low end of the band that I also pick up at the high end of the band. I don't know what to do about that so I'm prepared to live with it.  Otherwise, it works really well.
