1936 Philco 116PX Electronic Restoration
#2

I started the process of re-capping the chassis.
A some questions I hope someone can answer.

1. I found a film cap not in the parts list: 30-4334-S. I can't find it in the Philco Parts value listings. Anyone know what value it could be?

2. A multi electrolytic can has 4 caps: 1, 3, 2, 1ufd. I have 2.2ufd, and a 4.7ufd. Can I use the 2.2 in place of the 1's, and the 4.7 in place of the 3 without going too out of spec?

3. Looking over the schematic, I can find all but 1 of the electrolytics. I can't seem to find the 3uf from the 4-section can (C83). Is it possible it wasn't used?

Blessings,

Dan Double conversion is using two IF converters instead of one. This improves the image response. morzh — 07:15 PM
