Okay gang, I know all about the BBOD - Black Beauty of Death - but what can
you tell me of the Tiny Chief's? I found 2 .047's in an SX-62 that were
split in two, thus the indicated operation is to remove 'em all, in spite of
the fact that randomly tested ones (out of circuit) showed practically NO
leakage.
Also: Old, old trick from Novice daze [sic], but getting calib. xtals where
they're supposed to be, required only a 25 mmfd (sounds better than pf.)
trim-cap across it - netted right in (shades of DX-20 "rubbering").
Was just GIVEN an SP-600 JX-17 (USAF type)... yeah, it works, and DOESN'T
have the BBOD's. Am I living right, or what?
