I have a question for those of you more experienced in restores. I see on my schematic the filter caps are 12uF and 16uF. When I look the radio I found those disconnected and two 40uF caps being used. The changes looked professionally done and the solder looked original. I don’t see any updates. My question is if you were doing it which values would you use?
