Default AR88s and PCBs

Why would you want to replace the oil capacitors anyways?

They are still good. They have lasted 60 years and they will undoubtedly
outlast us both.

Leave it for the next generation who will neither be able to read or write
anyways.




The oil filled bathtub caps in surplus military gear are notorious for
being electrically leaky. Still a paper cap, regardless of the type
of oil.
