Realistic DX-100 Electrolytic Capacitor rE-Cap Kit - 16 Capacitors - Premium Kit

Description: This auction is for the Premium KK4HXJ rE-Cap kit for Realistic DX-100 Radio/Communications Receivers I offer these kits in both Premium and Value Versions I offer these kits to simplify the process of obtaining the necessary components to do a DIY capacitor replacement Premium Kits include High Quality Panasonic FC Series Capacitors (2.2-100uF values are 50v 220-2200uF values are 25v) (all values except 1uF which are Nichicon Brand PS Series) These are simply the Highest Quality Capacitors available anywhere Value Kits include Capacitors by various Chinese Makers I have been using and selling these for many years and subject them to many tests with excellent results. These are a reliable option for value minded hobbyists, I have sold and used these for many years and find them very reliable and use them for many of my personal projects. These radios are excellent candidates for a Do It Yourself capacitor upgrade. It is uncluttered, easy to work on, well labeled, and with the service, well documented. This radio was built from 1981-1984 so every example is over 30 years old. Many sources consider 30 years to be the outside life expectancy for Electrolytic capacitors. If you are looking at this auction, you likely realize that Electrolytic capacitors have a finite life, most Consumer Grade electrolytics including modern units have engineered lives of 1000-5000 hours at which point they begin to fail, which includes changing values, increased electrical leakage, increased ESR or outright failure such as opening up or shorts, many times these failures are cummulative and result in the gradual loss of performance. This upgrade will improve the function and reliability of these fine radios and extend their useful Life. Faulty capacitors are the cause of a significant amount of problems with electronic equipment and I have repaired hundreds of units in which the only fault was one or 2 defective Electrolytic capacitors. Replacing all out of spec capacitors is recommended and often restores the equipment to like new performance. Failure to replace them can result in failure/stress to other components such as transformers, transistors and diodes, many of which are hard to replace due to lack of suitable components. Recapping is a good investment and an immensely satisfying project. Work slow, have fun and prepare to be impressed with your work. I only sell capacitor replacement sets, repair kits, accessories and information for Equipment That I Own and/or Service, and have done the replacements myself. This includes Vintage Realistic DX Receivers & CB Radios, Kenwood/Icom/Yaesu HF Tranceivers/Receivers, Micronta VOM's & Various VTVM's. I have been repairing and racapping this equipment for about 20 years and often had difficulty finding the necessary values of capacitors. Service manuals for this radio are readily available on the internet free of charge, I will email one upon request if you have not located one on your own. The attached photos are examples of the size difference of Old vs. New higher voltage electrolytics. As well as a completed recap (before & after).
