Right  now the stupid project is tripping the GFCI receptical every time 
I turn  it on.  SOMEWHERE in the dozen or two bypass caps on the series  
filament line I suspect there is one that has gone a bit leaky.  In  
theory this is easy to find ... Pulling the hottest tube stops it but  
not the one at the very end so I should just go down the line pulling  
tubes in turn ...  right?

Walt,
 
Maybe just the capacitance is tripping the GFI.  You could try  capacitors 
from hot the ground on the GFI without the radio to see how much  capacitance it 
will tolerate.  Just a thought.
