Philco 19X restoration
#2

Welcome to the Phorum!

Yes indeed, those extra caps are the result of a past repair. Repair guys often just tacked those into the circuit without removing the old caps. Sometimes they even did that with the electrolytic caps. No need to interpret the Aerovax color code, just restuff that bakelite block with the caps that are in the schematic and take the extra caps off. Its pretty easy to stuff those bakelites. There are several tutorials; including at this LINK. I usually completely unsolder and pull them to make it easier to clean them up but as the link shows, you don't have to in many cases.
