[Collins] Re: R-388 cap/resistor

I believe Michael is correct in his assessment as a .01 uF cap, but no need
to change it as it is most likely a ceramic cap. I went thru all this a few
months back and discovered there were no Black Beauties used in the R-388
(according to a few sources anyway). They were all the cylindrical ceramic
type which are fine to leave in.

Good luck.
