LAS, this cap is new. It got pretty warm, but I never allowed it to cook.
Ron, thanks for that link. This radio has no stickers or identifying marks. I'll have to study every change to figure out what I've got.
Ok, reinstalled the tube, disconnected speaker wire, applied power. No heat. Went up to 115 on the variac. Cap got slightly warm, but nothing like before. I was able to hold it the entire test.
