[Hallicrafters] Halli SX-101A advice

[Mark K3MSB]

Hi Howie --

I used orange drops on mine and the recap went fine.   Do spend the time to
check the resistors;  I found quite a few of mine way out of tolerance.

My 101A worked great before the recap (especially on 10M),  and it's even
better afterward.    I did not feel I needed to do an alignment after the
recap.  I probably wouldn't hurt to do one though.

Some manuals state there are black beauties in the 2nd Converter
Subchassis.  I removed mine to find there were disc ceramic caps in them
instead;   that really shouldn't have surprised me as my manual was a copy
and probably wasn't associated with the radio originally.

Have fun.  The 101A is a great receiver.
