Hi Camine, Arran and All: Of course, you're correct... the tube was not the problem with my Mirror-Matic. Oh well, now I have my own little tube stash (and it was dirt cheap...). Radio Daze sells capacitors, too. But, as I'm FAR from being 'electronically inclined', I have no idea which kind (Electrolytic, Film or Mica). Any tips (couldn't find any reference to what kind of capacitor is needed in either the '60 Service Manual, or on the website's "Mirror-matic" repair page ...?) --- Original Message --- From: "C F" <mopowered@xxxxxxx> To: mailing-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: IML: Vacuum Tube Source/Mirror-Matic, etc. > > >> Jim; >> Are you sure that you need those tubes?
