Huge Mica Capacitor 42-350
#4

I have been told by several "oldtimer" radio techs that sometimes, on assembly lines, different parts were subbed due to availability in many radio sets.Physical sizes dont matter as much as close uufs/voltages in most cases. Sometimes, the techs on the assembly lines would "chunk in" a suitable useable component to complete a factory run, even though it didnt match the orig schematic. I have found that most of the time, those old sealed type mica caps are still very stable/useable in most cases in recapping vintage radios. Just my .02 ol TR
