Hello Bill,
I worked on an Air King A1000 and completely recapped it, and got it partially working. After working on this guy, the RCA 630TS is familiar territory for me. Yeah, the "micamold" are just cheap paper caps. Replacing them with mica caps is what I did on the set previous with the horizontal and vertical, as well as the video IF section. I actually ordered mica replacements and got everything today, so I'll just use those. I also ordered AC rated safety caps to replace the AC line filter "micamold" caps. If they do fail, they'll open, and not short. So it's just as safe as leaving them out and filtering HF noise. I have great ambition to get this set displaying a sweet picture and sounding good.
Thanks again.
Jonathan
