The originals were 600-volt rated paper caps, which I replaced during the first recapping pass. C64 is .035 and C65 is .05, which look like pretty standard values for those caps in my old TV books.

I replaced them with modern film caps (the brown chiclet style) rated for 630V. I paralleled two caps to make up the .035 cap.

I guess it's possible that one of the replacement caps is bad or that I (shudder!) installed a wrong value. I can disconnect and test them.
