Lucky you. I'm still looking for an FM tuner.

The rebuilt crystal cartridge works just fine. West-Tech did their usual good work.

In case you were unaware, my friend Syl has posted how to rebuild your own crystal cartridges here on the Phorum...

http://www.philcoradio.com/phorum/showth...p?tid=1019

I was getting close to college final exams at the time, so it was easier for me to just have it done. Sometime I am going to try doing it myself, though, using Syl's method.

By the way, the caps in my Magnavox (in both the AMP-101 and CR-188A chassis) all looked like large mica caps. The Micamolds were actually paper, and were all replaced. The real mica caps, Sangamo? brand I believe, were left in place. The caps that were cracked in your tuner were probably Micamold paper caps.
