[Hallicrafters] capacitors

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

As I recall, Black Beauty was a horse in a book I read fifty years ago, still
available in the library. Now 'tiny chiefs', are a rare genetic strain of Plains
Indians that somehow got mixed in with the miniature horses from Europe and
became dwarf size in stature, but tough as saddle leather in constitution. Last
known survivors were in an old Lone Ranger episode where Tonto got an ear lobe
chopped off by one! As for bumble bees, you will know them when they find you! 	
	
Jerry, you would do well to get some books and do some reading. No offense
intended, but before you try to restore circuits you need to understand what the
components are and how they work. There are many good beginner books on basic
electronics available. Unless you learn about the basics, your questions will
never end. Which can be frustrating when you are trying to replace resistors and
do not know what the color code means, how Ohm's Law works, how to read a
schematic with symbols and so forth. There is nothing wrong with asking a
question, but some good fundamental knowledge will enable you to know many
things in the future and minimize the need to ask and facilitate your ability to
effect repairs. 	
	
There are many terms, but a basic understanding will go a long way in helping
you learn both termonology and circuit operation. Without it, it can be very
confusing Jerry. Good luck.
