So there is good news today.

I moved that .05 AVC cap to the correct place and started to hear RF noise coming thru.

Did a quick If and AM band and SW band alignment and now it's working. It seems that by tweaking those alignment adjustments, the trimmers and padders must have been worked free of the dirt and grime and they are now working. So now I will run the radio for a while to burn in and watch for problems.
