[Hammarlund] SP600-JX help

[A Parker]

Hi Rick, Carl, et al,
	Some SP-600's did have gray bodied caps, Rick calls them GBOD "gray
beauty of death", I call them GLOD's "gray ladies of doom".  Very comparable
to the black BBOD's, just as likely to be bad.   
	Hammarlund did use 0.022's as well as 0.01's, but in one service
manual version they indicate that they all may (should) be replaced with
0.01's.  That's what I've been doing for years.

That is correct except the black is the body of the cap. The yellow is 400V.

The 65 and 51pf caps are across the IF coils to resonate them and may need
replacing if they are the old style block silver micas.
