37-116 Restoration
#13

I thought the same thing so I checked the model tag and it clearly says 50-60 cycle.  Maybe someone brought the radio into a 25 cycle area and had to increase the caps.  The PT is the number for 60 cycle radio so if this was the case, they didn't change out the PT.  Regardless, I already have the caps stuffed with 10 mfd Solens.  The multi section caps are going to be a problem if I use film caps.  They won't fit, as others have found out.  I may have to resort to one being under the chassis or use electrolytics.  I'll probably order some Nichicons.  These don't see the full ripple voltage of the first caps in line.
