GE S-22 electrolytic help
#6

If you are not greatly concerned about appearances a terminal strip may serve very well. You can use a 3 terminal strip with radial electrolytics of 450 volt rating, and 10 MFD for C17 and 5 MFD for C18. The positive terminals from both C17 and C18 are tied together on an isolated terminal of the strip, and connected to the red wire from L4 on the 1st detector coil, and the red wire from the corner terminal on the resistor terminal board on the opposite side of the chassis. The negative side of C18 goes to chassis ground. For that you can use the grounded terminal of the strip. The negative side of C17 goes to the other isolated terminal of the strip and then to the second terminal in from the catty corner on the terminal board, where R10, a red (or blue?), and a black and brown wire attach. The black and brown wire goes to the center tap of the high voltage secondary of the power transformer, which is the most negative point in the circuit. I suggest you look carefully at each part and locate it on the schematic. This will begin to give you a better understanding of how to read a schematic in relation to the various parts. Another question, did you replace the bypass condensers in the block on the TOP of the chassis? The connections are shown in a little schematic on the right hand side of the wiring diagram. They are in a box on the TOP of the chassis labeled in figure 3 as part 15, Capacitor Pack, R F bypass capacitor pack. You will need to replace these also.

IF can wire size and Rubber mounts?
Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
