John,

The general purpose 85°C 160V caps I have fit well and work fine in the synth and in the board 5b C8 position in the PSU. C6 was finally replaced with a single 4.7uF 160V cap from another source with an ESR of 3 Ohms and again fits well. I also changed a couple of transistors I wasn't happy with in the one PSU. Both are now working in their respective PRC320s, the Rx and Tx freq is quite stable.

I do have a spare set of these caps so will drop you a pm with more info.

Cheers,

Martin
