43X Electrolytic Condenser help
#1

I'm down to replacing the (3) Electrolytic Condensers  Items #'s 47, 72 and 75.  I need help confirming the polarity of the condensers . I have attached a marked up schematic to show you what I'm thinking.

Item numbers 72 and 75 I'm using the 8 mfd. since this is a two speaker set.   Center lug is (+) and the side post is (-) .  The side post is connected to both cans.

Item 47  I'm guessing it's a 6 mfd.  I found this on the Philco Library  but the years listed was from 1936-1939 . Since this is single lug  (+)  and the schematic shows this connecting to ground (-) would this be the correct way to install the new condenser

the polarity you showed in the sch marked with red is correct.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

thanks for the confirmation
