Philco 16X restoration
#12

Ron

The cap came yesterday. Thanks.
Interesting, upon measuring, contrary to the usual, when the dry caps exhibit little or no capacitance left, this one has all 4 caps in the range of 3 to 8uF.
(Wow! It is 4 times as good! Icon_lol )
So, even though it will have to be cut open and re-stuffed, one thing we know, it has not dried up.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
