Title: Capacitor substiution Post by: N9axl on January 31, 2016, 06:31:45 PM I am working on this Johnson Viking 2 CDC. It requires dual 15/15 mfd electrolytic caps. All I have been able to find is either 20/20 or 10/10 dual caps. Which would be preferable?

Yes, but my axials don't tell. ;D Phil Title: Re: Capacitor substiution Post by: w4bfs on February 02, 2016, 06:52:02 PM Is this don't ask, don't tell ?
Title: Re: Capacitor substiution Post by: N9axl on February 18, 2016, 02:51:51 AM The discreet axials are the ones Hallicrafters hides under the tuning deck of the s20r. So discreet and hidden you don't realize they are there and can't get to them when you do. AMfone - Dedicated to Amplitude Modulation on the Amateur Radio Bands
