Default What is this thing inside my radio?

Ah. You may have been onto something. It is indeed C13, in Beitman's. In
Sams it's C11. Somehow I assumed that they would use the same parts list.
Silly me.

That's a good guess, but C13 is a different cap. That one is shielded by
the common foil shield with a separate wire coming from it to ground.

Jeff,
Looking at Beitman's schematic, I see that C13 (0.02 uFd) from the volume
control wiper to V3 grid is shielded. Looks like that might be what
you're looking at. The black plastic-covered tube around the capacitor
is the shield.
