[Hallicrafters] S-108 IF transformer caps

[jeff]

Anyone know the value for a new silver mica capacitor for the IF cans in the above?

I've done the research, and anecdotal reports seem to indicate 110 pf. Just wondering if anyone had direct, hands on experience with them.

I've studied the process to hollow out the old ones from the coils and will just mount new micas underneath.

It appears that the same transformers are used in contemporary radios and precursors such as the SX110, and S-40.

I also noticed that two of the transformers use a large straight slot slug, while the third is a paper core with a hex head slug. Was that the way it was made, or am I looking to fix someone else's repair effort?


Thanks for any suggestions.
