1936 Philco 116PX Electronic Restoration
#12

(07-15-2017, 01:17 PM)Radioroslyn Wrote:  The caps in #83 are not particularly critical in terms of capacitance. What Mike was referring to is the filters in the power supply(#103 and 104), these are decoupling. Have used 4.7mf for these in my 660L and 116B and have no issues. Interesting that the 116X  I thought I saw the same capacitor p# for both sets.

Terry,
Thanks. I was aware that the power supply filter caps should be as close to original as possible. Those call for 8, 8, and 10. I have 3x 10ufd @ 450v I was going to throw in there. I think that will be close enough. For the 3, I'll use the 4.7, and for the 2 and 2x1s, I'll just use 2.2ufd. Icon_thumbup
