Thanks, everyone for helping keep the capacitor-kit project going.
About 70 kits have been shipped so far, so enthusiasm for keeping the
Green-Flame lit is alive and well..
I wanted to tip everyone off to the imminent arrival (this week) of the
first production run of electrolytic re-cap kits for Heathkit SB-301
receivers. Actually, the biggest share of this batch have already been
pre-sold at $27.95 + shipping, and at this writing I'm down to only
three kits unspoken-for. More are plugged-in for production down the
road a few weeks, but I mention these in case anyone is in need and
would like their's sooner.
Here are the original specs vs. the new kit's specs:
Multi-Section Can:
Original New
100 uF @ 200 V 100 uF @ 250V
40 uF @ 200 V 47 uF @ 250V
40 uF @ 200 V 47 uF @ 250V
40 uF @ 200 V 47 uF @ 250V
old can sections rated 85C
new can sections rated 105C
Invidual Axial Caps:
qty 1: 10 uF @ 15V 10 uF @ 35V
qty 3: 10 uF @ 150V 10 uF @ 250V
Also arriving is run #4 of the HW-16 kit, #3 of the DX-60, and a small
batch of Drake 2A/2B kits.
Hope to have a wider selection as time goes by, and we're still able to
supply special orders (one-offs, etc.) with a 3-week or so lead time.
It really isn't necessary to put up with me in order to order these if
you don't want to. My web-page is finally set up with a shopping cart
that accepts both credit cards *and* PayPal. And of course, money
orders are still FB.
The caps and shopping cart are located at

73 es many tnx,
Tom
