Need help identifying electrolytics
#1

I was hoping that maybe someone could help me with one of the electrolytic cans on the Philco 116B, p/n 30-2121, number “80” on the schematic, because of my limited ability to properly read radio schematics. The can has 4 caps – 1.0uf, 2.0uf, 3.0uf, 1.0uf. I’m pretty sure that all the neg. leads are tied together and grounded to the chassis. I was wondering if someone could help me identify which capacitor is which, and where the positive leads connect. I think I know where they go, but I’m just not confident enough to replace them without someone to help. I've just completed rebuilding all the bakelite blocks and I don't want to proceed restuffing the can until I'm absolutely sure its right.

Thanks
Jeff
