I recommend putting them in a box or baggie for future re-stuffing. My
SX-101A is a nice example of a completely recapped radio; it works
superbly, but it suffers from the dreaded "orange disease".
I like to keep the old caps because some future owner of my radios may want
to restore them back to authentic condition, and the original caps will be
available.
