Why don't you try three 10 Meg resistors? One 10 Meg (10 Meg) in series with two 10 Meg resistors in parallel (5 Meg). That gives you your needed 15 Meg total resistance.

I take it you still have a Radio Shack store in operation? They pulled out of Atlanta awhile ago.

These nice RS 10 meg resistors are actually 1/4 watt and the schematic calls for 1/2 watt so I'd need to double up two strings of three to increase the wattage if I wanted to do it "right". Though for a test, I'm sure what you suggest would work just fine until I put in my next mouser order and get the right one.
