47-1230 Capacitors
#1

I need to rebiuld the receiver on my Philco 47-1230. I have a couple im sure, simple, questions. I read that mmf is the same as a pf capacitor, in other words if the schematic says 22mmf then it is a 22 pf in todays standards, is that correct? Also, it looks like you don't usually need to replace any mica capacitors when recapping a unit. This radio made through a house fire although it didn't actually catch on fire it got VERY hot and the capacitors look like they have been subjected to a lot of heat. Thing is I dont see any that look like a mica capacitor anyway, does anyone know if this set actually has any mica capacitors in it or not that I just don't reconize on this old set? I am planning on replacing pretty much all components (capacitors, resistors,etc) in it except transformers, adj capacitors, etc that seem good because of the heat it was subjected to. Any tips or opinions on this please let me know and thanks for your time replying to this.
