Just finished rebuilding 36 MR-4 modules (as per Jim Williams mods) and before putting them back into the frame
I started thinking I should look at the Power Supply. Since 1981 it's never had any problems, voltages good.
Should I recap it?
It has some caps that are as large as soup cans. There are also two large caps under the board.
Do these go bad or should be replaced? What about the small ones? Would there be anything else to a power supply rebuild? Not looking for another project but I've gone this far.
