Do you have a specific recommendation on the type caps for a tuning circuit on a tv boombox like this that I can get on mouser? I usually use ELNA silmic 2 caps and Nichicon FGs when recapping stereo equipment, but I think those are only rated up to 85 C, and may not be the best for this application.

Not trying to be nit picky, just want some that are a good fit for this environment.


I will also take another look at the resistors when I get the IC out.
I am inactive at this time so not sure who & what to use. 85 deg are fine.
since caps are smaller I would double the voltage unless there is a space problem. Most of it probably uses 25V caps so go to 50V etc. If you want to recap fix the problem FIRST then do a few at a time checking it as you go. Mistakes happen & there is nothing harder than finding a self induced problem.

C U later
