Philco 40-150 Electrolytic can replacement
#1

I am working on a Philco 40-150 and am looking for a dummy capacitor to fill in the hole left by a missing 30-2405 cap.  Someone in history replaced the cap and discarded the old cap.   Any source for these?  Thanks.

eBay is one place though that would be more than one should pay for these. A swap meet would be another. You are in PA, Kutztown is in 1 week.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

I did not see anything on EBAY but you are correct the prices can be out there!   Love to hit Kutztown but we always seem to have something else going on.  I can try posing on the Antique Radio Forum as well,  we have some local guys that might have what I need.
