to RE-CAP or NOT TO RE-CAP

Tue Jan 29 18:38:49 EST 2002

Hi all,
Let's start some discussion.
Is it necessary to go beyond the large electrolytic in the power supplies? Should I replace all the electrolytic?  Should I go through all the caps in my SB-401 and my SB-301?  Should I just replace the caps in my HP-23A or should I buy the complete PC board with all the new parts from The Heathkit Shop? and with or without the regulator?
I am looking for some advise.

Thanks to all,
K0EJF
