Fellow R-390A Drivers,
I am still getting email asking about the ReCap kits. Yes, I still have a few 
left. 
For those of you who may not have been on the list a long time, what you get 
is 10 little Ziplock bags inside a large Ziplock bag. Each little bag has the 
contents marked on it such as " (1) 50 uFd  50 V , C103 ". No searching around 
trying to sort out what goes where. Just get the smoldering iron hot.

I guess I will just have to keep on doing the ReCap kits as long as you guys 
want 'em. But next time I buy capacitors the price of the ReCap kit will have 
to go UP a couple or three bucks so I don't loose money on 'em.
Interestingly, 4 of the last 6 ReCap Kits went out of the country. Wonder 
what that neans.

Kindest Regards,
Dave

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

(13) 0.1 ufd, 600V
C256, C309, C504, C505, C517, C521, C528, C531, C536, C538, C543, C547, C548
(7) 0,033 ufd, 600V
C275, C529, C533, C534, C541, C545, C602
(7) 0.01 ufd, 600V
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.

Dave
