Hi Group!
Here is the $64.00 question for the week. Who has the best prices on capacitors (electrolytic,gum drops,and silver mica). I am restoring several Hallicrafters receivers (S-38's - a lot of them, SW-500's, S-108, SX-130) and need a reliable inexpensive source of caps. Hamfests are not very reliable (as a trip to Huntsville Al. hamfest proved). Have checked out Digikey and Mouser, but looking for other sources. Anybody have dealt with other sources and been satisfied? You can email direct, or thru this medium. Many thanks to you who reply with constructive comments.
