[R-390] Recap kit Update- Wife back in hospital -SNOW

[DAVEINBHAM@aol.com]

My fellow R-390 Drivers,
Inquiries about the recap kit keep coming in each day. The most often asked 
question is do I have any left ? Answer is yes. I have 8 kits with in-the-can 
electrolytics and 8 kits with under-the-chassis electrolytics. 
Normally I ship same day I get your check but due to my long suffering wife 
being back in St. Vincent's hospital, I will try to ship in 2 days of recipt 
of checks. Unless the weather girl is right and we get SNOW. If we get SNOW, 
I will ship soon as it melts. When it SNOWs in Birmingham, Alabama no one in 
his right mind drives anywhere. And in spite of the well known motto of the 
US Post Office, mail delivery is usually suspended in SNOW emergencies.
It only SNOWs here about once every 2 or 3 years so no one has any experience 
driving in it. Moreover, the police shut down the interstate hiway system. 
The surface streets become bumper car city. Twenty to thirty car pile-ups are 
everywhere. So, I stay home when it SNOWs. Fortunately, the hospital is less 
than 2 blocks away so I can walk there to visit my wife.
And most important, THANK YOU to all the nice folks on this list who have 
sent me email about my wife. Belive me, it helps.

Kindest regards,
Dave

R390A capacitor kit.
I have put together a ReCap kit for the R390A.
It consists of:

(13) 0.1 ufd
C256, C309, C504, C505, C517, C521, C528, C531, C536, C538, C543, C547, C548

(7) 0,033 ufd
C275, C529, C533, C534, C541, C545, C602

(7) 0.01 ufd
C549, C553, C601, C604, C605, C607, C608

( The above are Orange Drops or equivelent. )

(3) 30 ufd 300 v electrolytic C603A, C603B, C603C
(2) 47 ufd 300 v electrolytic C606A, C606B

( The above electrolytics have axial leads. You can wire them under the 
chassis and leave the originals in place to retain stock apperance. Or you 
can order capicators small enough to fit inside the cans of C603 & C606. Just 
remember you will have to deal with the Dreaded Black Ukkumpucky to get the 
guts out of the cans of C603 & C606. If you do not specify at time of your 
order, the under the chassis capacitors will be shipped.)

Finally, one each of :

0.047 ufd 100v C227
8 ufd 30v tantalum electrolytic C609
50 ufd 50 v electrolytic C103
0.22 ufd 100 v C101

I cannot find a source for:
2 ufd 500v C551 oil filled paper 

so, I will include a very high quality poly cap. I have installed one of 
these in one of my R390A's and I can say I cannot hear any difference. They 
work great. This is the AGC capacitor.

The price for this recap kit is $80.00 US funds. Price includes UPS or US 
post delivery. Canada and mexico US$85. Western Europe, South America and 
Pacific rim US$90, rest of world US$93. All sent airmail if possible. ALABAMA 
RESIDENTS MUST ADD US$3 STATE SALES TAX.

Send orders to:
Dave Holder
Biological Instruments, Inc.
820 South 29 th. Street
Birmingham, Alabama 35205-1004
USA
Payment may be check or US currency. ( If you send cash put it in an envelope 
inside the envelope you mail. AND IT IS ENTIRELY AT YOUR RISK) Sorry, no 
credit card orders.

Before anyone starts to bitch about the price, please bear in mind, my gross 
profit will be about $3.12 per order. That should earn me something less than 
minimum wage..... before corporate and personal taxes. I reserve the right to 
withdraw this offer if it gets to be a pain in the butt.
