Sorry about upside down photo. Ipad issue.
I have two tuners from Philco 70's.
I removed one set of micas from one tuner , I, II, III. I counted the turns from end before so.
The others are left in the other tuner IV, V VI.
III looks fairly good. II has a crack in it. I has distortion on one end corner.
In the tuner VI has some feathering on edge, IV and V not so bad.
1. Would all these micas probably work ? Does a crack in one or feathering on the edge render it useless ?
2 Would you leave the other ones in the tuner alone? The idea was to clean it though.
3. I read someone on here used plastic with success, cool idea, as these things are not available.
THANKS !
