Hallicrafters SX-62
#3

Thanks for clarifying that. There was a 100 mf cap in there which I removed - hence my confusion. I’m sure I have the right value in my parts box.

Apparently a previous owner “fixed” this with whatever random parts he had on hand. The power supply cap is the wrong value. The other electrolytic is a strange brand which I’m convinced was salvage.

This sat in storage in Michigan for 18 years - not good storage evidently judging from the dirt and rust . I’m taking my time going through this - hopefully that will give whatever moisture is in this a chance to dry out.
