Hello All.....

Want to say up front...thanks for all the posts and help. Here is where I am now. New caps came. Took top of can off, clipped all old wires from the old caps and lifted the can out, leaving the bottom part of the can in; also leaving all the wiring in place under the can. (Did not have to touch that)! So now have 1mf across 1 & 2, 1mf across 1 & 4, 1.5mf actoss 1 & 3, 0.15uf across 2 & 6. (Again, old caps completely out of the circuit). The caps are rated at 630v. P late voltages all within speck. The 10 watt power resistor across b/c pins 1&2 still gets hot to the touch. There is 55vdc across it, and putting an amp meter in series, it is drawing about 33ma. This is the olny component hot to the touch. I have had the radio on now for 5 hours, running like a champ! Aligned it at 1400 on the dial, and the dial tracks. Should I put in a 20 watt 1500 ohm resister, or just snug the 10 watt against the chassis as a heat sink? The resistor has not gotten any hotter. Thanks again everyone. Joe
