Some questions.
After careful examination, restuffing the chassis mounted electrolytic cans will
be a nightmare if done as described in the article mentioned in the sticky
thread at the top of this forum (remove can from chassis, uncrimp buttom) because
they are all soldered in, most at two or three places. Some are riveted in.
I'm not intending to leave the chassis bottom original looking, but I am the top,
more or less. I could do a "cut off at the base and cover the gap with
silver color tape" bit on them, but that would not look original even at a glance.
What I'm thinking of doing is just leaving them in as is, removing them
electrically, and adding terminal strips to hold the small new caps.
For the ones in the power supply, I would remove the seleniums, which are
huge, and mount the new caps, 1N4007s, and their associated dropping
resistors, on a circuit board mounted inside their cage. The rest should
easily fit under the chassis. What do people think of this ... it would be
easily cosmetically reversible if a future owner wanted to, as I'm saving all the
old parts.
Where is the Candohm resistor on the schematic?
