The 1 meg resistor was to prevent a static charge from building up if an outside antenna is connected - grounding the chassis serves the same purpose, if it's even necessary - I doubt it. If you DO use a 3-wire cord, you might have to swap the two AC wires for minimum hum. Much easier with 2-wire - just flip the plug over.
