OK, didn't have enough 100 pf to make a complete block so I cobbled together a 47 and 56 to get a 103 pf, actually measured 102, and a 100 to complete the block. I'll put in a 51K to match what was actually in the radio. Now, only things left are find that replacement 6UF can capacitor and get my speaker reconed.
