OK, I know exactly what I have.
There is "3 B 9" impressed upon the can. I checked, it seems that the first number 3 means something else, and the letter and numbers after that is the alternate name for the can. Thus, in the book B-9 is indeed 21250.
I checked on the rest of the cans and the same system works when checking the imprinted numbers against the 5-digit number in the book.
So now I know for sure my radio used 21250 can and not 20010 can (in the book listed next to mine, with all correct caps' values).
So, it is 0.0005uF, 0.003uF and 0.007uF (500pF, 3nF and 7nF) caps that I should be using.
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.
