RE Mohican capacitor question? Dave, Jebem?
Looking into the three electrolytic caps in the radio.
-On the GC1a circuit board schematics page 38 are two electrolytics; a 50 mFd-15v and a 150 mFd-15v. On my board these are 100 mFd replacing the 50 mFd and 250 mFd replacing the 150 mFd. -Referring to figure 25 and page 54; fourth paragraph down on the left the capacitor should be 50 mFd but mine is rated at 220 mFd. Of course these are outside a general rule of thumb for replacement values of 10%; ie 100 mFd could be replaced with a 110 mFd with no adverse affects as long as the voltage is the same or greater. Looks like mine was recapped but with grossly wrong values or does someone know something the manual doesn't? These seem to be outside the 10% range. But the way, I do have the GCA1. Cheers, Geoff |
