[Icom] Cap Question

Wed, 9 Apr 2003 21:21:50 -0500

Hi Frank,

Thanks, they sure do look like plain old disk caps except green in color.
Well, I have to replace all the plastic trimmers in my 761 and hopefully
they will be here tomorrow, I got them and all the small lytics in the area
that Icom says to replace also and they are coming via overnight air.

Icom says to replace several of the pin diodes also but Mouser does not
have them.  What the heck is a pin diode anyway?

I thought the 761 would be a good learning radio because it is so big with
lots of space inside it to work.

Bill,

Ceramic disks of the correct (or higher) voltage will work fine. It's an
"ICOM Thing".
