Thanks for the Info, Jeff. No, i have no leaking caps on my PC-8201, but i think something is wrong with couple of my units. Sometimes, they switched, sometimes display became unreadable, sometimes contrast can't be changed. +5 and -5 are ok, so maybe some of the chips need to be replaced...

I have not seen one that needed recapped. The TRS-80 Model 100 and Olivetti M10 are a different story, they all need recapped. Do your capacitors appear to be leaking or do you suspect they are faulty?

Have someone already did a recapping job on the NEC PC-8201 or PC-8201A ? I am searching for a starting point, or simple table sheet which capacitors / voltage / capacity should be used ? Any help is welcome. Thanks -- Kind regards / Mit freundlichen Grüßen ExPLIT IT Solutions Pawel Radomychelski
