Just for everyone's info I just got done conversing with Tom at Hayseed about
kits and shipping charges. If you order multiple kits the PayPal system will
include S/H for EACH kit but as Tom pointed out there is a maximum
shipping/handling charge of $10; until he can fix the web site system his

You can buy complete re-capping kits for the R-4A (both 13 and 11-tube
versions) from Hayseed Hamfest at the following link:

I just re-capped one of each type using the Hayseed Hamfest kits and

Well, the first question is, where do you come up with five caps? The
original R-4A is a three section, 100/100/100 @ 200 VDC. Another

wild' in
There's someone on the net that does "reproduction capacitors" and can sell you
a new one.

Hi Joe,
Hi guys,
I'm working on a early serial number (2213) 13-tube R4A receiver. I'd like
to restuff the electrolytic can with new capacitors. It looks like a very
tight fit using (4) 100 x 250V and (1) 20 x 250V new caps (total of 5
capacitors) in that old can. How do you feel about mounting new caps in
