[Boatanchors] Solar brand mica capacitors 5 dot color code.

[Rob Atkinson]

This isn't going to be much help I'm afraid, but no one else as
answered so maybe this is better than nothing.  There are around 4 or
5 different sets of dot codes but the whole thing is so byzantine,
that I just replace any of those old postage stamp micas, because it
seems like half the time they leak.   If you have a schematic or parts
list for whatever you're working on, I'd replace them with ceramic
caps for RF or polypropylene film caps if audio.  Of course you can go
with new dipped micas, but then you get into the silver migration
problem again.
