This puppy is done...(well, except that I realized the knobs are not right...but compared to the door replacement and the IF coil surgery that's just something to keep an eye out for at the next KTown.)
I had the chassis back into the cabinet, knobs on, back on and....it would not play...
Then I remembered way back in the beginning one of the wirewound resistors in the filament string circuit was open and I'd aligatored a temp in place during the electronic restoration but never made it permanent.
Took it back apart and added that resistor and all is well.
