Just got a KCS-96 chassis set

I use my metal film for all replacements. Inductance is trivial and no effect at these frequencies has been my experience.

Just for a bit of fun trivia: at the end of the assembly line, Zenith (and other makers) had a final test where the set was pounded on three sides to look for any intermittents. Zenith used a kid's solid rubber ball mounted on a wooden dowel for a handle, and called this the "JWS" test, for "Jumps When Struck."

Coulda called it the 'GWT' test (glitches when thumped).
