I ask because it's in parallel with a 70K resistor to ground but the other end goes through a 25K resistor, through the 3 section resistor to the CT of the high voltage output which I thought was the most negative part of the radio. So which end goes to chassis ground? + or -? Assuming this is a lytic cap.

Got the cap figured out.
