hi agn folks,
    I have documented what I've done for the re-stuff process on my
website.  You can take a look at:
http://www.boatanchors.org/filtercap.htm
    that page covers work on Drake receiver, SP-600, R-388 filter caps,
and the bathtub caps found in the SP-600 & R-388 series.
    I did 3 caps for R-388's this past week, 2 had good sized pins to
drill into, the oldest one (51 date code)had pins with holes that looked
like they could be used as-is for crimping, but did have just enough meat
for drill/tapping.

Al, thanks for the link to all the great info and close-up pics you have 
presented on your website on rebuilding multi-section caps. Everything needed for 
anyone who hasn't tried it yet. Lots of great info on repair work to other 
radios you have done in your website also.   Thanks! 73 Todd WD4NGG.
