I need to replace a buffer capacitor in the power supply rectifier circuit
in an old HW-10 Shawnee I'm trying to restore.  It is a paper cap, oil
filled and the value is 0.047uf @1600 volts.  I can find a 0.047uf one but
nothing rated at 1600 volts.  Is this a critical value or can I replace it
with a polypropylene one rated at 650 volts?
