    Well I'm embarrassed that I'm stumped at the first recap step...

I want to replace the two primary e caps and I'm finding info with wildly different specs -

- Replace with current values?  There are a pair of 200MF 200 VDC e caps in there now.  That doesnt seem right?

- If I'm reading my schematic correctly (Radiomuseum.org) items 45 and 46 are my e caps and they are both 8 mf.  That doesnt seem right either.

- Antiqueradios.com mentions that the model 60 schematic should call for 1 of 12 mf 400V and 2 of 8 mf 250V.

Is there another schematic source that I can try to validate these values?

Thanks!
Matt
