Philco 90 electrolytic question
#4

Thank you for your quick responses. I appreciate it. I guess I should have been more clear. The original cans are gone (no longer on the radio) and in their place are two electrolytics, each at 10 mfd. These are the only electrolytics on the radio, put there by a previous owner. The negatives of each are soldered to the BC resistor: one at the far left of the resistor and one with three wires on it, soldered to the terminal to the right of that. Were these the proper termination points for the original electrolytics? If not, where were they?
