Philco 52 restoration..cap block question

Posted by Bill G. on 03/24/2009 08:52

:Hi all I am restoring a Philco 52. It has a block of caps (Philco part # 03915 cap values are .1,.5,.25,.5,.15 )The wires comming out of the block are usually color coded making the job easy. In this case the wires are coded in tar and I can't make out color on wires. Plus the schematic does not give values..just the placement of caps by virtue of a number(23 on schematic) My question is..could I just replace all with .5 values or will this effect preformance??

Replacing them all with 0.5 will likely cause problems. This is especailly true in teh audio section. There wrong size capacitors will cause distortion in the audio.

Best Regards,

Bill Grimm
