[Hammarlund] BBODs in SP600

[wes bolin]

I kept the Black Beauties Of Death that were replaced when I went through my
SP600JX26.  And, I just fixed a Heathkit TC-2 Capacitor/Resistor tester to
work
again after who knows how many years. I decided to test the BBODs for
leakage.

I tested 50 of them and every one was leaking at less than 200 volts.
These had
measured reasonably good with my Simpson VTVM Ohmmeter ie. some with many
megohms of resistance.

Several contributors advisde me to replace all of them (the radio was
working good) so I did it and am glad they told me to do it.  I recommend
it too.  And, the radio has been working great for about 6 months now.
