| They can be found at www.tubesandmore.com. Replace with exact same values +/- 15%. A .01 MFD condenser may be replaced with a .015 MFD condenser. A .05 MFD condenser may be replaced with a .047 MFD condenser. Use same or higher working voltages. If originally 400 WVDC, then any condenser rated at this voltage or higher may be used. A condenser is a capacitor. Condenser is the older word which I use for some odd reason. It's all the same stuff that they use in modern radios, though. You may find a limited variety of condensers at Radio Shack. They have .01 MFD, .0047 MFD, and .001 MFD condensers rated for 500 volts. In an emergency these may be used. If you need .05 MFD, just wire five .01 MFD condensers in parallel. These are ceramic condensers of modern design, which are extremely reliable. All of the other condensers which they sell are usually rated under 100 WVDC. You can't use these in your set. www.tubesandmore.com is an excellent source for many things that you'll need for your set. I recommend ordering their catologue, as it's a bit easier to read than their web site, though you'll find the most up-to-date information on their web site. Thomas |
