16B chassis — questions
#42

I am going to try restuffing the electrolytic caps on the power supply this weekend and wondered if the following is a bad  idea: 

   

I plan to use to use two 16 uF in series to yield 8 uF; and 1 meg resistors for the voltage divider.

This is for caps #87 and #88 on the schematic.  In this case, the positive end connects  to the filter choke and the negative end to the center tap of the power transformer, yes?

Cap #75, on the other hand, will be a single 10 uF with the POSITIVE end to ground, right?

Thanks for any help--on my actual chassis this entire part of the circuit has been hacked out so I am trying to reconstruct it.
