[Hallicrafters] [National] [Boatanchors] Request for Most Common Capacitor Values to be Reproduced

[Mike Everette]

Seems to me that "most common" cap values may have something to do with manufacturer's choices.

Older Hallicrafters radios are full of 0.02 uf paper caps, and this value does not crop up nearly so often in other brands.  National, on the other hand, uses more 0.01.  RME also favors 0.01 but you also see 0.1 uf caps there.  Collins uses more 0.047 than I see elsewhere.

For whatever this may be worth....
