Those capacitors are using the standard 3 digit code - two significant digits followed by a multiplier (9 is used for a multiplier of 0.1 in this type of identification).

010 is 1pF
030 is 3pF
270 is 27pF
229 is 2.2pF

I don't know where your 270pF (marked 271) capacitor may be, you didn't list it.

With manufacturers discontinuing many thru-hole components, it is getting more and more difficult to keep the manuals current with the available supply.

I'm having trouble identifying a few capacitors used in the assembly of the K2 
RF board.

C72: "271"
C45: NPO "1", black top
C33: 2.2pf "2R2" or "2"
C198: NPO "27" or "272"

What I have:
a blue "010"
a blue "030"
a yellow "270"
a yellow "229"

I suspect the "229" is a 2.2pf capacitor for C33.
The "270" could be 27 or 270pf, but I'm not sure; it might be for C72.
The "010" could be the 1pf for C45, but it doesn't have a black top.
Could the "030" be for C198? This suggests it could be:

I'm having trouble measuring capacitance for these tiny capacitors. Values are 
all over the place. Any suggestions for verifying the values and positively 
IDing them?
