True, but the original can cap is gone. Hmm, that reminds me I have a scrap Motorola TS-23 chassis with a very similar cap. Maybe I'll restuff that one for this set

Sure, but I'm hoping I won't have to replace all of them. I have five Predictas to restore each with a few networks on the PCB. So I was thinking if I put some socket pins in on of the sets, I could test all the networks before bothering to replace them. Also gives me a way to test the reproduction networks easily.
