Philco 20A - Electronic Restoration Questions
#36

I wouldn't bother powering up and testing after you replace each capacitor or you'll possibly fry something and probably be at this for months. It's safe to assume every capacitor in there except the one mica will need replacement. If you want to try and keep some of the old resistors, you can de-solder one lead and check with your mulitmeter. I'd be surprised if most or all of those didn't need replacement too.
