Bingo! I think you may have hit the nail on the head!  I noticed also that
the C73 was poorly marked and MIGHT be a 4.7 or a 47. Soooo... I took it for
a 47.  However, I CANNOT find a 47 in my kit at all if the one I put in C73
is really a 4.7.  However, I do have four 470J's that are small blue ones?
Could they be the 47pF which almost has to be. I have 4 of those and the
parts guide shows 4 of the 47pF as well. It does NOT show a 470 anywhere in
the description of the 47pF caps. As a matter of fact I do not see a 470
anywhere in the parts descriptions. But hey there is a LOT of things I
haven't seen!Hi.

Oh ya.. Tom you were correct. I did forget to do the parts inventory on the
RF section. Not sure why I did the others and not here unless I did the
unforgiven and was working on it tired when I got to that section. I
honestly didn't even realize I had forgot to do it until you asked! As the
kids say "My bad".

Can anyone confirm the small blue cap marked 470J on top line and COG100 on
the bottom line is a 47pF cap?

Thanks & 73..
