Rebuilding a Philco Tropic 42-730EZ
#21

I have some questions regarding the power supply in this radio.

[Image: http://www.philcoradio.com/images/phorum...730_ps.jpg]

Note the parts circled in red - resistors (78) and (79), and capacitors (73) and (74).

Two 150K resistors between each side of the AC line and ground instead of the usual .01 uF caps?

And, more puzzling to me, two .003 uF caps between each side of the rectifier plates and ground?

Your comments, please. I am inclined to leave these parts out unless overruled by you, my valued and respected Phellow Phorum members.
