If so, you need to know both the value and the TC, and then you can order what you want out of the AVX catalogue. The note drawn on the schematic in Jonathan pictures says "0 temp coefficient, 710 mmfd". The parts list in the manual doesn't list the parts internal to the 70E-8A PTO- it just says to send it to Collins for service. Oh, use any modern NPO or COG dielectric ceramic capacitor. That's close enough to zero. Probably closer than the original. Try Digi-Key part P4859-ND. That's a 100V, 680 pF NP0 ceramic. If 680 pF isn't close enough, add a 33 pF in parallel. Fifty cents each, discount if you buy ten. Avoid the high density Y5P Z4V, etc. dielectric types like the plague because they will have a very high temperature coefficient. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |
