Philco 116-122 Console
#5

It would make a lot of sense to use a polypropylene film 8 uF cap for C104, the first filter after the rectifier. This radio requires a lot of DC B+ current and a modern 8 uF electrolytic won't last long in this location because of the high ripple rating needed.

This is what I would use, it will basically last forever:
