I was mistaken earlier. After closer inspection, I was one pin off, and it isn’t a straight path to the block I noted. I think I’m going to go with your suggestion of soldering in a short lead to pin 6 of 7C6 while I have the push button trimmers out of the way replacing the wax caps. Oh well, not a big deal.

I do love how you are supposed to leave the loop assembly in the cabinet for the RF alignment. I’ve got an idea for doing this while still keeping the chassis on the bench, but we will see when the time comes.
