[R-390] That's more like it!!!

Hi Guys,

        I don't know that there is any one "Accepted" cap specified by this
group of believers but I think the Orange Drops are probably the most
used...but certainly not the only cure for what ails these radios.  I have
heard of many caps of similar design being used.  I for one would prefer one
with the leads coming out the ends like the originals....they would be
easier to mount.

Cecil....
