I cleaned things up a bit, using many many Q tips, and then de-soldered all the paper capacitors, and checked their value against the schematic. Phil Nelson's website is extremely valuable (yet again)!

One question I have is about R43 and C34A. They look to have never been installed on my circuit board. The components were absent, and it looked like the board was soldered without them (holes filled with solder, and look identical to other original solder). What do you guys think, should I add them? There's no notes on the Philco schematic or in Sams about them being optional.

Note: I see the same components are absent on Greg's board too.
