Looking at re-capping a Sparton model 835 chassis and found these odd looking caps under there.
A few have a crusty coating on them as if they were leaking.
A couple shown in the picture don't have the crust, but look like there is a wire winding under the coating.
Are these a different style of cap that Sparton used in 1935, or are they something else?
I am used to having the cap values clearly marked on the paper and wax caps.
Apparently on this radio, you have to chase them down on the schematics.
Anyone have any suggestions here?
