Joe,
Electrolytic specs were -50 to +100% on most caps so exact values generally aren't that critcal. Voltage spec is since in theory if you are much under the working voltage for the cap it will de-form.

I'm looking for a suggestion for what to use as a replacement for a 60µf at 150v 
(x3) electrolytic capacitor?  The closest I can find is a 47µf or 100µf.  The 
3 section unit in the radio measures 2 1/8 x 1 1/8 inches if that helps.  
There isn't any room to use a larger replacement.  

Any ideas anybody?

Thanks.
Joe Devonshire
