Philco Jr.
#11

For that cap block I used a .01uF Y2 safety cap but as you can see in my first picture the electrolytic cap you are referring to does not exist in my chassis.

As to progress, I have already rebuilt the blocks and replaced resistors that were OOT but I am waiting on a replacement resistor for the 16K (#11) to get here from Digikey which should be Monday. Then I can complete installing the second filter cap and the 16K and 1M resistors.

As for the gimmick around the wire from the volume control center tap, how tight do the windings need to be or does it not matter?
