I looked at the ATwater Model 20 TRF is very similar to this radio. #34 the two caps .13uf and 3.5 uf are blocking caps. 1200v . They do not have any AC since its DC. My best guess since study the ATwater is caps might charge to 1600vdc making it about 400v more dangerous to work with. Other than that no problem.

I'm dont know this RADIO enough to be sure with it. I just need those caps and a few others replaced. Also making a 115vdc power supply to light it off.

Which might be pretty and dangerous. Or it could be dangerously pertty bad.

I have found a lil about the #14 is like the 24A except the filaments are not 2.5 they are 13.3 to 14 v
