[Milsurplus]V33#37 Checking Caps (was Oil-Filled Caps (BC-779)

The real test of the power supply filter capacitors
is to use a scope to have a look at how well the
DC is being filtered.  For capacitor input type filters
use a volt meter to see if the input capacitor is doing
its job.   Someone want to comment on howcome
there's so many different power supplies for the
BC-779?  They were all interchangeable.
Also, anyone get zapped by lifting a working BC-779
by the IF can on the rear edge?  The little variable
capacitor is hot, and not covered.
