...that Zenith is a real BEAUTY-!!!

Very good video! Try to relax as you do the work and you will make less mistakes. However, you are doing a fantastic job! This oldtimer is impressed! :) I heard measuring them is doable. However, I have always either did numerous value cap substitutes, or use trimmers. I have seen some radios where the mica was literally completely deteriorated from arcing. Not sure an accurate measurement can be made on them; something I might try when I see another one.

Great video! I will put this in my favorites as I have recently obtained a Zenith AM/FM that I wanted.
