I'm restoring a Philco Model 52 Grandfather clock.  The model 52 radio used has a multiple capacitor can containing a .1, .15, .25 & 2 ea .5uf capacitors contained within.  Issue I have is the drawing shows
.pdf Model 52 P Lib.pdf Size: 729.61 KB  Downloads: 208
this component as capacitor 23.  On the drawing all 5 connection points do not indicate the capacitor values at those connections.  I don't know which value goes where......      Any in site would be greatly appreciated.
