Actually that is the first thing I suggested but the owner doesn't want to
go that route unless he absolutely has to. I have heavy Teflon coated wire
that would work (the actual wire size is #16 I believe). We may have to go
that route if no cap is found. I believe the plate voltage on the 6136 tubes
is about 850 - 900 volts DC so probably 2000 volts AC (RF).
Thanks for your input.

You can make your own, used to be called a "gimmick".
Twist two pieces of insulated wire together for about an inch,
just make sure insulation will handle the voltage.

A friend of mine is in need of a 3pf, 3kv cap for the feedback circuit in
his Kenwood TS-830S. Lots of suppliers list it, like Mouser, but no one
has
it in stock. Does anyone have one you give or sell to me??????

Thanks,
Ken
