HV Caps and micamold

I found the HV cap that is the same as what they used in your set, according to the parts list. I'm attaching a photograph of it. I had called it a bumblebee. Maybe that's not quite the correct term since it didn't have stripes for a color code.

You probably have a few Micamold capacitors too. Many of mine were bad even though they were truly mica. The Aerovox ones were o.k.

I just noticed that C215, in the Sylvania schematic, is listed as either a 0.00075uF-1,000V-Mica or a 0.00075uF-1,600V-Paper capacitor. You should probably check to see which you have. If it's paper, you probably need to replace it. Because of the way it was listed, they may or may not have sent you a film cap to replace it with.
