Decoding Bakelite tarboats question
#1

I have started to read through all I could, and ordered the info for my radio (37-9) from Chuck (schematics and such) and read through the article describing how to rebuild those tarboats, and I am foaming at the mouth to get started.

Sooo, I thought that I would get started on developing a part list that I need to replace the caps.

Stumbling block (no pun intended) on the very first one that I looked up. (part 44) it gives a part number of 6287 DG for a dual .15mF cap. (tarboat)

So I go to the trusty part list fully expecting to see a 6287-DG.... No joy.

I am assuming that there is a D component, and a G component to the 6287, but houses have been burned down for assumptions.

Can someone tell me exactly what is going on with this part number, and I will extrapolate from there for the others, I hope.

Thanks so much,
Kurt
