Alan,
Drat! Impetuous youth. Or rather in my case impatient old man! I had already removed the xtal by the time I read your post or I would have just tombstoned the resistor. When I get back from work this week I'll put it back in.
Thanks!

Jonathan,
You don't need to remove the xtal.
Much easier is to just remove R101 to disable the analog BFO alltogether.
Or lift one leg ("thumbstone" it).
If you ever want to go back to the original situation you only need to
reinstall R101.
