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.
