Second: the wiring diagram uses two parallel bars as the symbol for capacitors. However, a few of them have slanted slash marks between the bars. The slash marks must mean something, it's doubtful they are there just for decoration, but nothing I've found indicates what they mean.

Often the slash mark also has an arrow head on it also. At any rate these are the station tuning capacitors, and the trimmer capacitors used for aligning the tuner. the trimmer capacitors will have a screw head or some other way to insert a tool to adjust the capacitor by changing the distance between the capacitor plates.

Wouldn't polarized caps be used for a specific purpose? - DRam 12:45:14 02/01/17 (0)
