I have a little problem here.  I'm recapping the tone control but mine is different than what's on the parts list.  My tone control only has 2 caps.  The schematic calls for 3 caps.  Parts list calls for Pt# 04787.  Mine is something, maybe 4 then 2-5001.  Hard to read the first number.  I studied bobanderson's restoration thread of his 15DX and his tone control was Pt.# 04787 and his connections were completely different from mine.  His are all on the left side.  Mine has 1 on the bottom left and 2 on the bottom right.  I checked the Phorum library and the Philcobench and it is not listed in either one.  
I guess it's not a real big problem if I just put it back the way it was but I don't know the values of the 2 caps.  I'm guessing a .01 and a .02.  That is what one is from 1933 according to Phorum parts.
Anybody have an idea if these values?  Any info is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Dick
