It lives! I've never been accused of being patient. I temporarily reinstalled the out of spec resistors and the old RF coil with a new primary winding similar to what was on it previously. Just a lot neater and closer to the resistance listed on the schematic. I get stations all across the dial on all bands. I will do an alignment when I get the replacement dial as the old one is unuseable. I'm looking forward to getting Ed's original coil in it and the proper power supply resistors. Woo whoo!
Now I have another cabinet that needs to be refinished. Crap! I'm not fond of that aspect of restoration. I've got about 4 lined up.
