Re: My 'formula', FWIW, is to put the largest 'propylene cap can get in there.

In your post you use the following example:
My ASL Explorer 805s used a 220- and two 47µF decouplers in the 3 positions; I replaced them with 47-, 22-, and 15µF 630V. Solens, again, bypassed.
So the 220 µF electrolytic was replaced by a 47 µF film cap;
The 47 µF electrolytic was replaced by a 22 µF film, which was bypassed by a 15 µF film. Is this correct?
If so, how did you determine that value of the initial caps would be 47 µF in place of the 220?
