Having just realised that you've used fixed resistors to set the regulator voltage(s) I feel you should be aware that unless your set the output voltage under a correct load you may find that considerable variation occurs. Your carefully selected resistors may be wrong. Result could be a drop in voltage to the point where a set will not function and this may mislead you. Worse still, there may be a damaging rise in voltage. Follow the suggestion made in the post above by fitting a variable and setting it under the loading of an actual working receiver (but ascertain the pot's direction first). I use a large wirewound pot for this procedure but anything will do, including a mini preset.
Looking good, by the way!
