Re: Kolster-Brandes MR10
I suppose R31 in my radio could be brown very dark green orange, anyway 10k - 15k not that much difference, and it is all back in the case so I cant take a closer look with more light.
The capacitors I sometimes use are the brown Polyester types, I try to buy ones branded "Suntan" as I found problems with the CBB branded ones, they didn't seem to live up to their voltage rating.. When I tested a 630 volt cap it started making faint crackling noises at about 400 volts.
Suntan ones don't seem so common now, everyone seems to be selling CBB caps.
They are a lot more economical to buy than the yellow axial ones. I do use the axial types sometimes if I am re-stuffing caps in an older 30's radio.
