Radiola 48 chassis restoration
#17

It all depends on if you can get access to both choke leads without having to open the filter can. If you look at the drawing on the Rider schematic, one side of the choke is accessible at the red/blue tracer wire. The other end of the choke does not have a wire connected, but there seems to be a terminal marked "solder" to which it may be accessed.

If you can get direct access to both ends of the choke, you can eliminate the original caps from the circuit and just replace with new .025 (or.022) uF caps and be done with it. If however you can't access the other end of the choke winding, then add the .22 uF caps in series with the originals via the green wires so at least the leakage of the original caps is blocked by the new replacements.

The original internal .025 uF caps will still be in the circuit, but the risk of their leakage upsetting the bias will be eliminated.

Hope this all makes sense...
