[R-390] R-390A IF deck caps in T501 or T502

[hamfish at comcast.net]

I'd search for the 200pF 2% and 300V silver mica caps. Space is very limited in that IF transformer. A larger voltage rating or using several caps to obtain 200pF most likely will not fit.

Regards,
Craig

Hi Dan,

Well, at this price, they are 5%, 500V parts...
Will be good to order a bunch to hope finding one or two within 2% tolerance (requires a good capacitance meter).
Or you buy the 1% tolerance ones they have too, or the Digi-Key 2% part...
I once bought a lot of 25 5% tolerance caps, hoping to find 1% ones within the lot using a meter, but I finally do not found any...
Mileage may vary, they say...

Is there some reason not to buy sm 200 pf from JustRadios for 89 cents each?  Of course, they have min order of $20 but there’s always something else you might want. Dan
