Hi Everyone, boy this site has been a big help for me to restore this radio. I have all the caps to restore this radio My question is, I understand that it is a good idea to put a "safety cap" in place of one of the regular caps. Can someone tell me what cap that is. I have a couple .01 safety caps that I got extra on another radiio project. I have the shcematic all I need is what number cap it is. Also is a .0012 okay to replace the .0015 cap. thats the only one I could find that was close.
Thank you in advance
Bob J.
