[Milsurplus] BC-342 High B+ Current

[Tom Norris]

And they're a bugger to get to - each of the modules on the bottom  
have them, and there's usually one in the VFO section -- *right  
underneath* the 6C5 socket.

Argh!

To the earlier comment about the oil caps - in nearly all the  
BC-312/342/344/314's I've had, the large bathtub cap in the middle of  
the chassis (in amongst the last IF's, underneath the chassis) has  
been bad, while the ones up top behind the RF amp and mixer are  
usually good.  Note "usually" rather than "always."
