[ARC5] BC-454 Caps

[Brad Hernlem]

All four triple units out now. Seven of the 12 sections read low to very low 
capacitance. Two tubs totally shot. This is clearly a weak spot. There is no 
point in returning any of these to the receiver. It is amazing that I was 
able to hear ANYTHING out of the BC-454 in the test run.
