Re: [TenTec] Herc 2 LP Cap?

[John Huffman <hjohnc@gmail.com>]

Wade and all -

I called Ten Tec and it's 100pf and 2KV.  They had none in stock and 
said they were hard to find.
I searched Mouser and found some discs at 100PF and 6KV.  While 
physically smaller, they have the specs and are less than a dollar a 
piece.  I bought 5 (you never know) and shipping was still more than the 
parts  :-)
Probably just a bad component so I'll pop in the new one and see what 
happens.
Thanks to all for your suggestions on and off the list.
