C304 is a 2--18.5pf trimmer capacitor...since it's a pc mount, you might 
find something like it in Mouser's catalog...also, consider looking at 
Surplus Sales of Nebraska...they have an inventory of trimmer's for 
Collins S-line gear, and they will have something that will work.....the 
bigger question is why it blew...I would check all of the diodes and 
caps that are part of that circuit prior to putting any power into it 
again...
    I do have the manual...if you can't find it via the usual places, 
get back with me...I could take a hi res photo of the calibration pages 
and send it to you...
