Hi Dave,

Can you fit doorknob inside the tank?

Given: 
Series-feed Triode PA tank with link-coupled output.
350 VDC B+, about 9 W out on 75 Meters.
Padding across the tank coil with a 50 pFd doorknob was successful in
lowering its resonant point, but space is severely restricted and doorknobs
can be expensive.  
*Rewinding the coil is not an option.*

What other types and specifications of  available capacitors would you
recommend for this service?
