Ron,

Quote:Whatever you do, don't use ceramic discs to replace the two caps in the pushbutton assembly unless they are NP0 (temperature compensating) caps! Normal ceramics will let the preset stations drift after the radio warms up (don't ask how I know this). Micas will hold the adjustments steady.

You know because you are wise!
