Re, tape removal: I tried hours of soaking with several solvents including isopropyl alcohol, Goo Gone, and Goof-Off. Finally did a four-hour soak with paint thinner which did nothing to the adhesive, but softened the tape fabric enough to scrape it off.
I replaced the diodes with new 1N4007's after I fried the resistor. There are no apparent shorts, but I'll keep looking.
Thanks.
