Hello, Before I completely reassemble my RF deck, What should I know about the Vitamni Q capacitors?? Should I shotgun replace all of them, or do they hold up OK?? They seem a bit more reliable than the BBOD's but I don't want to take this apart more times than necessary.  If I replace the Vitamin Q's with orange drops, should I wrap them in copper foil and ground the foil?? Thanks, Ross

Thanks much. It will be a while before I get to it. I think the
mechanism is easy enough (dead beat, simple time only).  There is a
piece of the painted glass that has flaked off. I expect that would be
tough to match correctly. I may leave it alone.
This clock dates from prior to 1935.
