The problem with buying NOS caps is that they might have been new in 1980. They've been sitting on the shelf for all this time, and might not be much better than what you have now (unless yours are shorted). Bob M. == --- On Fri, 9/19/08, kk2ed [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From: kk2ed [EMAIL

Eric, I did some research on those capacitors, and found that the original part number 2383093G20 is NLA. However, I noticed that part number 2383093G27 is still available, and is described as CAP ALU 17500 -10 +150 20V. It is priced on MOL at $ 36.59 each. I wonder if it is a suitable

I think you're probably right. I found a source for the OEM caps at $9 each, but may I'm better off just fabricating some sort of mounting mechanism and using newer style caps. Rather than using 2 17500uf either side of the chokes and four after the last choke, could I just use one 40,000uf

The capacitance may be split between capacitors to reduce the effects of internally generated heat, ESR and inductance. I would use the same number of capacitors as the engineer that designed the supply specified. I would also use 105 degree C capacitors that have the lowest ESR that I could

What signal are you using as the COS from the receiver?  If you use RUS you will have a combination of the squelch and the CTCSS detect.  The two are anded together so that both have to be present for RUS to be active. If you are using only the detected CTCSS you will have the hangover you
