Question on my Philco 41-295 lamp
#23

I suppose it is a matter of taste, YOU know they are there, and YOU have seen them, so it bothers your aesthetic sense; but, personally, I don't care about the yellow condensers under the chassis. Nobody is going to ever see them once the chassis is installed, and if someone ever works on the radio in the future, they will easily be able to see the work you have done. I just leave the new, yellow condensers as they are, don't try to stuff them into the old paper covers, or hide the fact they are new. It seems a matter of honesty to me. Having worked on old radios for over half a century now, I would much rather know what has been done by a previous repairman, than be misled by someone re-stuffing the old paper tubes and making the condensers look "original."
