1000 V Capacitors in 41-250
#7

I just finished a full electronic restoration, full recap, and complete rewiring of a Philco 41-280 chassis. It is very similar in my Riders schematics to other similar Philco models of the same year. Didn't find any original Philco wax caps in the chassis rated a 1 KV, period. It is working fine. Sometimes, manufacturers threw in what caps they had available onhand at the assembly line. 630 volt types caps should be fine in both models. Did my Riders schematic miss something? From past experience restoring hundreds of similar circuits, I didn't see anything in the 41-280 chassis that using 630 volt type caps for coupling or bypass would not handle. Just sayin'! The faulty parts in these type sets are the original Band Switches, always worn out! Deoxit & WD-40 can only do so much to restore these type old Philco bandswitch's for sure on these particular models! Been there, done that many times before. Icon_thumbup
