The cap. is C202, 220pf, in parallel with the 470K resistor. Pin 6 of the 50L6 is a B- tie point on the tube socket and not an active tube pin. Just use a standard 630V cap. and you'll be fine. Be sure to check all other components. Icon_smile John


Thanks, That is exactly what my father-in-law told me too. I guess I will need to pick one of these up at Radio Shack.


Well I tried Radio Shack but they only had 100 pf capacitors. I just received a big order of capacitors and resistors from "Just Radios" but did not order this type of cap. Any suggestions from anyone where I can buy just 1 of these caps and not have to pay alot for shipping.

Also a link to the proper capacitor on the vendors page would also be appreciated. I have looked at Antique Electronic supply's web site but could only find ceramic caps at 220 pf, no tubular.

Thanks in advance.
