Title: Aerovox Transmitting Cap Replacement Post by: N1BCG on September 20, 2023, 08:49:35 AM This 0.004uF 3500V cap spilled its innards after what I believe was a nearby lightning strike. Nothing direct, but close enough to take this and several transmitter components out. All that's left to replace is the cap.

Any other suggestions? 0.003 or 0.004uF will work since I can change taps on the inductor to accommodate some variation. Many thanks in advance!
