Hi Gary,

I have some (two) caps that match that form factor. It seem to recall 
them having large capacitance but not sure about the voltage specs. I 
have already looked in the "easy" places with no joy. Cleaning, 
arranging, sorting my "stuff" in the garage/shop is on my agenda for 
this pandemic while we have nothing much else to do. I will move from my 
music room to the shop and see if I can dig them out of "deep cover". 
Meanwhile, somebody else may have the needed parts on top of their heap.

73,

Bill  KU8H
