This is my first post on this phorum, but not my first restoration. I have done a dozen or more. I know just enough to be dangerous! I have decided to tackle a 41-290 that I have had sitting around for a few years. What a project! I have replaced all the electrolytics, the paper caps, and have a good start on the rubber coated wires.
There is a wax covered square block attached to the band switch, I assume it contains caps? Does this need replaced? & what would I replace it with?

Thanks!
