So I got back on the 37-630 tonight. I was really studying the schematic and found that capacitor 42, between pins 4 and 5 of the 6Q7 is there. It is a micamold type O 3 dot capacitor with an arrow. The color order starting at the tail of the arrow are yellow-brown-blue. That checks out to a 41,000,000 pico capacitor? Does this seem correct? Did they maybe put this high value in to make up for the other missing caps? That cap is connected to the same circuit as missing caps 33 and 35, albeit through the 2nd IF can and a resistor. It could potentially connect to cap 46 through the volume control pot. Could this explain why they are missing? Or am I out in the weeds on this one… and wouldnt a 110 pico cap have dots of brown-brown-brown?
