I don't know if this was suggested, but you can buy a cap of larger
value that physically fits the area and then remove a plate/stator or
two to get the proper value.
Removing a plate and/or stator is a trick from way back in ham time when
people scrounged parts and made them work.

I've found one that I can make work and ordered it. It's not exact,
but it'll fit in the
spot and should function OK. Thanks to all who responded to my query.
There were a lot of good ideas and they are all appreciated.

Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Duplexer parts
Thanks, I sent them an email and they said they haven't sold that
capacitor in 25 years and all spec sheets, etc are all gone. Was worth
a try though. I'll keep looking

they have a very large selection of Johnson, series 167
capacitors and will be able to give you the exact specifications
on the broken one that you have.
