No I'm not sure where you are going other than check my work which I have been doing. Did you notice I said there is a 60 volt drop across the field coil? Is this normal? I disconnected 14X and still at 235 volts on the B+ side of that resistor. Also when I did my initial IF alignment I could not get 1XC to peak. It did get louder as I screwed it in but it never dropped off and it is almost all the way in now. Does this mean anything?
