Hi again Terry,
The buffer cap has only a Philco number on it with no value. The number ends in a -S which usually means it is a shielded cap ( like the ones in the metal cans).
It is not in a metal can but looks like a standard paper/wax cap. I can't find any reference to that number in any Philco data I have. It is even one digit different
than what's listed in the parts list. The number on the cap is 30-4351-S. In the parts list is 30-4381, a .01uf tubular. Do you think it makes any difference? Vibrator
hash can be a problem in poor reception areas. I have found a 1600volt unit that will fit the space and I have found some units to fit the shielded can caps (#72, 75, 76).
Thanks for all the help everyone.
Gerald
