[Hallicrafters] Source for multisectional electrolytics?

[Cary Fries]

Howdy!

I think my S-40a needs a new filter cap...there's a resistor coming off of 
the cap that is hotter than blazes and looks like it's been scalding for 
some time.  There's only a slight buzz in the speaker though.

Anyway, I've been searching around the net for some NOS caps...I can only 
find ones in the neighborhood of the 10-10-30 450v that I require.  Can 
anyone recommend a place where I might find one?  How critical are these 
.mfd values anyway?

My BFO is on the fritz...no action whatsoever.  I checked the switch, and 
it's kosher.  Anything else that might be obvious that I can check?

Thanks!

CF
