[Collins] Advice on Collins 32V-3

[zilassoc at sbcglobal.net]

Great Radio ...... have fun restoring it.  I've owned several V3s.  All of 
them had failures of the postage stamp mica caps.  These caps are even 
hidden in impossibly difficult places to get to, like inside coil cans. 
Also two of my V3's had a bad B+ cable going to the PTO.  Apparently that 
cable didn't age well, cracks, and then shorts out.
