This is for a model TH-1 the schematic states the capacity and part number but no voltages. Any one who has worked on this model know the electrolytic voltages?

Hi Jake,
On all the old radios I always use 450 volt caps voltages can be 275v to375v.

This is half-wave rectifier from Mains, so 200V is enough. 250V is a standard popular voltage.
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.
