Grigsby-Grunow (Majestic 20)
 
I just got this grandfather clock radio with a Majestic 20 chassis and I want to recap the filters. Has anyone ever recapped one of these oldies? It looks to me like all of the 'lytics are in a large metal box together but 'am not sure yet.

Yes, thanks for the road map. I did see it already but 'am wondering if I can replace the 2ufd and 1ufd caps with 10 and 4.7 respectively or if that's too big.

You can't gow wrong by replacing them both with 10's. Be careful cleaning or working around the tuning capacitor. If memory serves, that model is chock full o'pot metal and breaks easily.
