G'day Gents!

I need to replace the dual 8 uF caps in the power supply.  I read (can't
remember where now) that if hum still exists with the new 8 uF caps,  use 16
uF each.  That's been shown to clear it up.   So. of 16 uF caps aren't a
problem...

The parts box is lacking 8 or 16 uF caps,  but has a good stash of 20uF
caps.   Do you think there would be any problems using them?    I'm a bit
concerned about increased inrush current,  but figured I could add a
themister after the bleeder resistor.

Thanks!
