46-480 FM test socket?
#4

I started to say you might have a hard time finding a 5mfd electrolytic  capacitor for that exact value, and that Morzh's comment about it being a correct value is because , for all practical purposes, a 4.7 should suffice for the 5.0 value.  The distributors will tell you that also.

. . . . but I notice JustRadios.com does, indeed,  have a 5mfd electrolytic, rated at 600 volts.  I was careful to get my exact filter values also, even though it meant buying a couple with higher voltage ratings.  I can get picky that way sometimes, also.   Icon_rolleyes

Trouble is, their $20 minimum order.  Hope you can come up with more you need to make it worth it.
