It's Alive!!!
#7

Thanks Jerry, I touched the cable coming out of the receiver and got a loud hum, then I tested the wire at the cartridge and got lots of good hum there as well - On to the BOL! I've been in touch with West-tech and think I'm going to send it out to them, they may even have a replacement motor for the turntable. I can't even imagine what it'll be like having this fully operational, it's an incredible sense of satisfaction as it all comes together.
