ELECTROLYTIC CONDENSER/CAP 6 mf. -6 mf ., 150v
and one im not sure i need (oscillator grid CONDENSER/CAP 110 mmf )
I would like to purchase the modern versions of them .
Thank You
.01uF/600v (common)
.006uF/600v can be substituted with a .005 or .0047uF without ill results.
These can me Mylar, polypropylene or polystyrene.
There are pleny of good suppliers online. Find the cheapest. Yellow tubulars
are almost the norm for radio and phono restoration for their shape and availability.
110mmf (micro-microFarad) is actually a 110pF (a ceramic cap would do or silvermica).
Keep everything within 20% and you'll do fine. All at 600V to be on the safe side but
400V would do.
[edit] I forgot to add, the 6uF (6mf) can be replaced with a 10uF/250V. Actually, in this application a 200V would do fine.
