Recently scored a travelvision TR-1020P from ebay. I discovered that pretty much every cap inside the unit has started to leak. luckily, the traces on the board are fine. is there anywhere i can get a cap kit for this set so that i can get the correct size caps?

Also, anyone know where i can get the tip that the DC jack uses? it's some odd shape, and i want to make a cable to run the thing off USB power.

I've never heard of people making cap kits for TVs. You're probably going to have to grab the Sam's for the set (or if not covered get the factory service manual) and use it's info to make your own cap kit from parts available on Mouser and or Digikey. Caps haven't gotten bigger over the decades so you shouldn't have a hard time finding caps that fit.

Looks like that's the easiest method then. I'll be doing that soon. now to figure out the DC jack...
