Default Re: Solartron CD 1400 Oscilloscope Refurbishment

Looks a whole lot cleaner!

I had a look at farnell for 68nF 2kV ceramic capacitors - and they are now surface mount COG dielectric! That is what 60 years does to component size.

But in polypropylene film there is a 68nF 2kV cap here https://uk.farnell.com/epcos/b32654a...-pp/dp/2728553 which would need to be shoehorned in because it is again much smaller, and radial leaded.

There are axial leaded versions, but all of them (along with many other electronics parts) are on stupid lead times as a result of Covid, Not a political statement or invitation to divert into a banned topic, but just a statement of fact.
