Hey Ron, for future reference you do not need to change out the tantalums. The ones you replaced have a solid electrolyte and do not dry out or deteriorate. They basically last forever.
Tantalums also have very low leakage and tight tolerances, much better than aluminum electrolytics
Also a bit curious as to why you changed out the ERO film caps? Those are great quality caps and far better and more reliable than the Chinese replacements sold today.
