Did a site search on 3000pf and sure enough, it’s come up before in a similar circuit in a 41-296 - like JohnR suggested. Apparently W5AMI replaced it but still had a flat or flatter peak with the slug tuning. I’m still OK with replacing it and tubes-store.com has them, but it is in Russia! And thetubestore.com while in the US has only up to 1000pf – as does most everyone else. Mouser seems the only place to get them – and they want pretty high prices. Anybody have a source for 3000pf silver micas?
