Not tested yet!...that's what came "stock" and worked fine until I
moved/misplaced the filter inline with an amp switch.
I'm still in a failure mode with just the series mica replaced with a CDV16
I had on hand and use for PI-inputs for G-G amps. I WILL be ordering both
the DPPM and CDV30 series. My first choice will be the CDV30's for a sub.

Yeah, Dave, if you compare the data sheets for the polypropylene and the
mica, the mica sure looks like it would be much better for high current RF
applications. That's not to say the the poly cap won't be good enough in
this particular application. Sounds like Mike K4EAR has tested the poly caps
in that application and found them to be adequate.
