One minor (well, OK, nitpicking) comment on this thread. A bathtub
capacitor is either square or rectangular and looks vaguely like an inverted
antique bathtub. And the terminals are mounted individually to the body, not to
the flat removable surface. I don't think there is a generally accepted term
for the cylindrical capacitors common to the A.R.C. built Type K derived
equipment. I've heard them referred to as "flower pot", although flower pots
don't generally have feet and they don't have lids. Chamber pot? Small
crock pot???
