Restoring Philco 96
#10

There is a lot of confusion about caps' values.

The current sch in our repository shows the 5, 11 and 13 caps as 0.015uF.
The part numbers for 11 and 13 is 3615-E, and according to Ray's book it is 0.05uF
Same value is shown in the Riders sch.
Now the part 5 is 3615-F.
Again, our sch shows 0.015uF, Riders is 0.05uF and Ray's book shows it as...0.006uF.
Notice that this is the only 3615 series part in the book that is not a 0.05uF. Some of them have resistors etc, but all will have one or two 0.05uF cap. So I think it is an error in the book.
I will use 0.05uF.

Plus, I think the way this cap is, it is not really important there; either value will work fine.

PS. South-Eastern Antique Radio Society sourve shows 3615-F, AF as 0.05uF.
PPS. Also Chuck Schwark's Repai Bench also shows it to vbe 0.05uF.

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.
