Bakelite Condenser 3903-DG
#1

Good morning. As part of finishing up the Philco 39-30 Code 121, I want to rework the Bakelite cap. It had a single .10 cap wired to the top, on the line at the first right terminal from the bolt (clockwise). The part number on the side is 3903-DG.
The person who bypassed on top it left all the wax and guts still inside, still in the circuit.

I see the 3930-G on the chart at this link, but not the 3903-DG. I saw another post saying that the 3930-DG is grounded differently that the 3903-G.

Link saying the -DG is set up differently:

Can anyone confirm the correct connections of/inside this unit? It's supposed to contain two .10 caps. I want to confirm where they attach -before- I disconnect them to get at the insides.

Also, does the 8-terminal numbering scheme apply to this condenser the same way it's listed on the link above, clockwise with the bolt being Lug 1?

Regards,
Clarence
