I worked on the chassis a little bit this evening. Added the resistor I had missed previously, and bolted down the large bias resistor (again).

I decided it was time to turn my attention to the electrolytic capacitors.

It had two aluminum cans in place, but both were replacements. As space is at a premium in this chassis, I decided to try and find something closer to original to take up a bit less space underneath.

One of the cans I will be installing is a dual section electrolytic.

When I opened this can, I expected to find the usual two electrolytic sections encased in tar and paper. But I found a surprise instead:

When this can was manufactured, a 1 inch twist-lock electrolytic was sealed in a bit of tar at the top of the can, and leads extended to the capacitor terminals.

I'll heat up the can and remove the twist-lock can later, then proceed with the restuffing of the larger can.
