Electrolytic Capacitor for PHILCO 41-290
#1

OK, I have replaced all my capacitors in my Philco 41-290. Piece of cake until I came to one of two electrolytic capacitors. I relpaced the one with standard axal leads with a 12 mfd eleccap. No problem. The other electrolytic cap(part no 30-2475) is more challenging. It has a black lead out of one end and a seperate blue and a seperate red lead out the other end. I think I I have to use two elec caps of 20 and 10 mfd. The problem is I don't know how to wire these. Do I tie the two neg ends together and attach to the black wire? If so, then what about the positive leads-does one go to the red and one to the blue? If so, which one? Can somebody help with a description or better yet a drawing? Thanks much for all your help in advance.

Happy New Year! BTW, a wives tale says that whatever you are doing on New Year's will mean you will be doing much of the same thing through out the year!
