14 should be easy enough to find the one end is connected to pin 6 of the 2A7 or a 100k resistor that goes to pin 5 of the 2A7. 13 connects to the ant coil thru the bandswitch. Don't know that there is any special magic that happens when you put a cap inside a cap. It might have been done foe space conservation but others may have better ideas why it was done.

I think Crosley payed their draftsmen in marbles and bubble gum...
