[Hallicrafters] sx16

Looking at the SX-16 manual, there is "one" 1mfd 400V Electrolytic. It 
is C46.

No other 1mfd capacitors in the entire parts list.

It is *possible* that a 1mfd 450V was put in by a previous owner at that 
location, *or* Hallicrafters simply used a 450V in lieu of the "called 
for" 400V due to what was *on-hand*.

Not exactly an "uncommon" practice when a lot of this equipment was 
being produced.

National did this in the Select-O-ject series of accessories.  Where 
only 200 o 250V B+ was applied, they used a 450V electrolytic.
