I forgot to mention I was present when one within my Drake L7 went. Filled the basement with little tiny things that looked a lot like tiny black butterflies fluttering to the floor. I don't remember if diodes went or not. But it did repair easily enough.

A medium sized lytic went off like a bomb. Many tiny fragments to extract from under the chassis but upon replacing the cap, all was fine. Very startling. -- Charles Ring W3NU
