Oops! I'm referring ONLY to bypass caps, obviously caps used for resonating filters or in timing
functions need to be mylar, etc. Some say audio coupling as well, but...
I believe this has been discussed before, but I can't find anything in
the archives.
Is there any reason to NOT use disc ceramic caps to replace paper caps
in a receiver?
Also, are there any sources of paper/mylar caps other than the radial
Orange Drops or the brilliant yellow axials? Neither "look" right, and
the radial leads are almost always a problem in a chassis laid out for
axials....
