Re: Capacitor problems
Just keep out the damp air. Oil filled and hermetically sealed line output transformers give few problems. The actual construction of most wax capacitors allowed for a 10 year life but these are are now over 50 years old!
I well remember the 'Plastiseal' capacitors giving loads of trouble when I was first in the trade. They were only 5 years old and resulted in massive leaks resulting in frame creep when warm. It was very noticeable with Sobell early double sided print receivers [TPS series] but these now perform with 100% stable linearity with good capacitors, 50 years on. John.
