Hi Mike,
I have cobbled together a couple of capacitors to get what I need, but I
would sure like an exact replacement if you have it.
Thanks,
Rick/K5IAR
Hey Rick,
Did you find your cap yet? I bet I have one. Let me look around after
hearing if you got one or not.

Unfortunately for me it seems the intermittent is on the inside. All of the
pins appear to be soldered well and tight. Thanks for the input.

Does the pins or socket contacts look like they got over heated? Any
solder dropped out of the pins? I have read about resoldering pins b
Well that stinks...Time for some target practice then.
I'll go look for that cap in a few minutes and report back yea or nae. I
have a lot of those some new even and most Military.

Hi Rick,
All I have is .25uf @ 600vdc & .05uf @ 1000vdc metal can rectangular

Great question here we use a Collins R-390a as our

The NC-300 was designed for AM, and the NC-303 for SSB. I've only had
a 303, but I understand the 300 is a much better AM receiver.

When using a receiver and a transceiver as a transmitter how do you switch
the antenna off of the stand alone receiver when transmitting. I used to
have a HQ180 that was a real good receiver with the transmitter section of a
ts 2000 but I could not share the antenna and when using a separate rx

In the discussion on RC time constants to achieve the delay, I assumed DC

source to activiate a DC "pilot" relay with the proper delay, using that
pilot relay to switch the a.c. control voltage to the main contactor.
