Hi; I am in the process of ordering parts for my Coronet and wanted to know if the board will accomodate snap in Panansonic caps for C2, C4 and C10. I will be using Auricaps and Kiwame resistors and I am considering using Nichicon for C13 to C16. I am interested to know what types of electrolytic caps you have used and may recommend. Thanks in advance.

Ron:
I used Panasonic TSHA for C2, C4 & C10 by grinding
the terminals smaller with a Dremel tool rather than
damaging the board by drilling larger holes.
Worked fine.

Thanks John. Where did you source the Panasonic caps from. Sorry for the spelling error, there is no "O".
