Use replacement 110pF silver-micas.
#6 on page 1. They sure look like micas, but I noted in the parts list some say "mica", and others don't. Now that I look, #43 does say it's a mica (it also seems to depend on which part list I look at!).  Oh well, I didn't like the way it was soldered in there, so it is replaced. Probably wont hurt anything anyway for an 80 year part. Thanks for the link to find those washers. Gonna tackle #45 next.
If I could find the place called "Somewhere", I could find "Anything"

Double conversion is using two IF converters instead of one. This improves the image response.
