That works for the smaller dogbones. They all seem to go up in value. As you mentioned before, the large ones seem to go down in value. Replacement is the only reasonable way to get it into spec. I have tried to hide a series resistor but it doesn't work well as far as the installation is concerned. I did do that on my 45C. Probably won't again now that I know I can do this.

If this helps you sort it out just remember 10,000 mmfd or pf = .01 mfd. So 5,000mmfd = .005 mfd.Radioroslyn — 04:23 PM |
