The 100 µF can is indeed C23, so I'll see what I can get and may change it for a 40 if circumstances require.

I'll also look in to good replacements for the death caps; chassis ground is also turntable ground, so it is a big issue.

It turns out that R31 and R5 are present after all; they are before the function switch and tucked away, so I did not see them until I searched thoroughly.

I'm placing an order with Digi-key for other electronics supplies, so I'll get as many of the caps as I can there... if all goes well, I may be able to do a preliminary test next week! *crosses fingers*

Not much other radio progress, but after an afternoon with some steel wool and rust remover, I think I've eliminated all the rust. The line cord has also been replaced (the prongs on the old one were bent up and corroded.)
