Actually, he's seeking an answer to a question that I couldn't answer
(at least not without more experimentation).

My implementation uses a BroadcastReceiver to get the WakeLock and start
the WakefulIntentService.

The OP is wondering if we can skip the BroadcastReceiver, and just have
the AlarmManager invoke an IntentService directly, with the
IntentService grabbing the WakeLock in onStartCommand().

Personally, I am nervous that this might be too late, and there might be
a gap where there's no WakeLock in force, so the phone may fall asleep.
However, I don't know that for certain.

Has anyone experimented with WakeLocks and IntentServices, besides my
WakefulIntentService?
