Just remember that the most negative voltage of the radio is found at the center tap of the power transformer. Therefore the negative side of all three caps should connect there at that point.

Only the positive of the 10 uF cap (101) should connect to ground. The positives of the 8 uF caps should connect to each side of the filter choke.
