I am relatively new to doing some of this electronic restoration, although I've done much of this sort of thing outside of radios in the past. My question is, on my 37-610, I have done a cap job but am divided on what to do about the filter caps. On this chassis there is a single bakelite housing that has the 2 .02uf filter caps inside. There are 3 separate connection points on the underside and was just wondering how you would go about replacing these. I have a pair of ceramics to replace with, but it doesn't seem that the original housing is reusable, so, with the 3 connections on the old setup, would the center connection be the common and the 2 outer ones be positive or? The schematic that I have is a bit fuzzy so I'm just wondering what some Philco veterans have done with these. Thanks!
