The final part of the recap is electrolytics.
Since they are in the cardboard sleeves, they do not have to look good where they are glued, just be sturdy enough to withstand the bracket's pressure.
I eventually went with 22uF 250V : they are small enough to fin 3 of them in the can, and in series they make 7uF which is what I need.
These are 560mA ripple so are very good. To control distribution I put 2.2M resistors across each of three.
The second cap does not have to be as good with the ripple or to be 6uF, it can be a GP cap. I reused 22uF axial cap that was in the radio, it is a Xicon and thereby a major component brand, and being a single is easy to put inside.
I use ring terminals to both terminate the Positives, and also to connect the screw to the rest of the chassis. The Minusses will be connected to the inserts that go under the cardboard sleeves.
Ready to be glued.
