Philco 116B chassis restoration
#33

Back to the chassis.... I've been stuffing bakelite blocks working my way through and got to cap#80 which is a multisection electrolytic with 1uF, 1uF, 2uF and 3uF connections.  To get to those connections you need to work through a few other components...  finally got it out, cut open and gutted when what to my wondering eyes should appear but 4 tiny caps with space for only 3.... Icon_sad   I bought solens to put in there and think I can stuff the two 1uF and the 2 or 3uF into the can.  The remaining one will have to get put in under the chassis unless someone else has a better solution??
