    need new caps for kenwood 820s ham radio

    for almost a year I have looked for new caps for my old kenwood radio but have not been able to find replacements.

    the radio contains
    (2) elna ce-w 500 volt 100uf single element. this cap measures 2.45 inches high by 1.42 inches dia.

    (2) elna ce-w 400 volt 22uf double element. this cap measures 2 inchs high by 1.02 dia

    (2) elna 25 volt 2200uf single element measuring 1.59 inches high by .9 inchs dia.

    I am a novice at this but have had some experience soldering and replacing parts. I can do this replacement if I can find a source for these caps.

    thanks for the help in advance

    Are you looking for exact replacements (same can form), or will modern leaded/snap-in caps work (I assume this is a tube radio)?

      clock radio / radio lifespan?
      by shelby5041
      hi
      ive got a modern digital clock radio approx 15yrs old

      my question is how long can a clock radio or a simple radio last ss farcas operating hours?

      since elec components have limited hour lifecspan i would imagine the radio or clock radio would eventually fail.

      the reason i ask is because i have my clock radio on radio function 24/7 for the past 7 years and its still working fine....i leave the radio on ..never turn off past 7years...thats approx 60000 hours

      it uses very little power just a few watts i would imagine that may have something...

      Vintage SONY Digital Clock Radio ICF-C12W no audio
      by UserXP
      Dear all,

      I have this old radio clock by Sony from the early 80s, I guess. The clock display works, but is dim, the function board appears to be OK - but the radio unit shows no signs of life. It doesn't produce a single noise, crack or anything from either FM or AM band. It's like it doesn't even power up.
      i opened the radio and it is full of some TRACON gray capacitors. They only have their negative strip printed, voltage and capacitace markings - no series, no temperature marking, nothing else.
      My question is, do you know of this brand of capacitors and how bad are...
