You have a few values on the order list that should be looked at. The. 0022mfd should be .022mfd and the .033mfd should be .0033mfd. Watch your quantities. If you need 5 or 6 of one value you might be able to buy 10 for the same price.

Measure the resistors and replace the ones that are over 20 percent off. I use 10 percent in my radios. Verify against the schematic as you go through them.
