I looked at the complete 655 service bulletin.
https://philcoradio.com/library/download...%20235.pdf
It shows part (41) separate from part (42) which is the tone control with two capacitors.
However
Looking at the parts list, this states that part (41) is indeed part of (42).
So, yes, part (42) does indeed contain three capacitors - two .01 uF and one .003 uF (3000 pF, or as morzh likes to say, 3 nF).
Remember, always study the service information of the radio in question so you do not make any mistakes. Of course, this does not count the times where Philco included errors in their service info...but isn't that what makes this sort of thing, ah, fun or something?
