Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

RE: Recapping receiver - slow progress and and couple questions.

I have come across a few instances where the + symbol silk screened on the board was not the + pin on the cap that was installed. I did not have a schematic, so I dont know which was in error. Since the unit worked fine for years before I got it, I installed the replacement the same as the one I took out, even though the board showed otherwise. So far so good, no problems. I always take a marker and make a mark on top of the old caps before I remove them. I make it on the side toward the front of the unit, so after removal, I know what orientation it was in. It has come in handy a few times.
