[NJARC] BC-348Q Power Questions(2 of them)

[Scott Roberts]

Sorry I misunderstood- I'd thought you said not to
worry about the metal-encased caps, which are the
majority of them, other than the Micamold, which you
said to get rid of. The large, flat, square ones. I
may bring the radio along Friday, and we can pull the
chassis, and compare notes :) I have only found one
typical paper cap, and that had been added- and now
removed.
