[Boatanchors] Plug-In capacitors- was 51J-4 parts update

[Tom NØJMY]

Gary's recent e-mail caused me to have another one of those annoying 
commercial moments:

Based on the R-390A plug-in electrolytic caps that we began selling a
couple of months ago, we've developed a plug-in replacement cap for the
51J-series as well.

The prototype is in service with one of our customers and worked out
well.  It is slightly larger in diameter than the original diameter
(by 1/8").  It still has plenty of clearance through the chassis
recess.

There's two different heights/capacitance units for the 51-J - maybe
someone can tell me if one supersedes the other.

They are priced at $32.95 each + S&H.  If anyone out there is
interested, please shoot me an e-mail off-list for particulars.

Very 73,
Tom NØJMY .   .
