I am working on a Philco 118 which has 11 Philco bakelite capacitors in it. The bakelite capacitor information in the past was in the Philco Repair Bench. Is that information still available and if so, where do I go to find the numbers and capacitor connections for the bakelite capacitors?

Thank you,
Best Wishes,
Oscar

I believe that info will return to the current site - it is just undergoing renovations at the moment. See this thread: http://philcoradio.com/phorum/showthread.php?tid=16781

There's a website that lists all of the bakelite condensers by part number with related contents and values... I can't find it currently but have it saved to my favorites at home. I'll post it tonight.
