Arran, thank you very much for sharing your experience again. I will take this into account when I do the alignment of the intermediate frequency amplifier circuits and all ranges next week. I am familiar with this problem of silver capacitors, because they were also used in Soviet radio engineering.
As for the Halicrafters receivers, strangely enough, they were quite popular in the Soviet Union and had great authority due to their high quality. A lot of Halicrafters and Hammarlund receivers were imported to the Soviet Union under the Lend-Lease program during World War II, but stationary models, such as the SX-28. They are still sometimes found at our local auctions. But the TW 500 models.... I have never met the TW 2000 in Ukraine. Perhaps because they were manufactured during the Cold War and were no longer supplied to the USSR ...
