Capacitor query
Hi all,
I am currently restoring a Hacker RV20 and have noticed a large numer of the depicted capacitors as decouplers. To me they look like ceramic types and I imagine they should be OK. Can anybody verify this. Any other comments gratefully received.

Re: Capacitor query
Thanks Bill for clarifying that.
Is the form and size of these capacitors generic or is it proprietary to one particular manufacturer?

Re: Capacitor query
They are tubular ceramics. Similar ones were made by various makers.
