37-630 Filter caps 60 and 62 backwards on schematic?
#4

No, what you probably are talking about is the cap that in 620 is #68 (though it is not electrolytic here, but in some radio it is).
This cap is always placed with its plus to GND because the other side is the rectifier's negative which is always more negative than the GND (it is in fact the most negative point in the whole radio).

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
