Trouble IDing Philco Cap Can
#7

Thanks to the both of you for your help. I believe I'll go with the 1ufd or 2ufd just because the size of the can dictates a larger size capacitor. A smaller capacitor would have been put into a mica block or just a mica cap itself installed.

Now I have to figure out what's going on with this "Micamold" cap that reads .006ufd but the parts list calls it out as a .06ufd. #42. It goes between the plate, pin 2 and whatever pin 5 is on the 79 output tube. Any ideas on what I should trust? The reading of the Micamold or the parts list? I've read that if you see a Micamold just throw it away.
