[Hallicrafters] Re: Question about Black Beauties and Tiny Chiefs

[Ken Kaplan]

There should be a lot more than one Black Beauty. Mine had 22! Go to 
http://www.qsl.net/kb7rgg/radio/index.html aand look toward the bottom of the page for a 
couple of links. I don't know about the Tiny Chiefs. Are they those pinkish caps that look like 
large micas?

Would someone please confirm my worst fear- that I should replace those caps since they are prone to disastrous failure?  I know the black beauties could be "death" to a radio and I think the tiny chiefs (very pink in color) are in the same league.
