Zenith Model 7 -S-204 "Waltons"
#4

"10 mfd ceramic", 10 mmfd or more commonly 10pf. This should be a cylindrical cap that looks more like a resistor. If the lead is corroded off it will have to be replaced. A silver mica will work too or a disc ceramic.

If the cap is holding up progress, a temporary solution is the twist two lengths of #22 solid plastic hook wire together about 1-1/4 inches should be enough for 10pf. Obviously a bit inductive too, but it work until the correct component arrives...
