Another in the series of Newbie questions brought to you by...me.

I'm working on a Hallicrafters S-38B. I've got the paper caps replaced and installed a polarized plug. It works great, but I'd like to make sure before I button it up, I've done all I can.

I've run across a few domino caps but most of them are mica so I'm not too worried about them. However, there's one type I've never seen before. The body color is a light clay color. It's attached to two high accuracy resistors. I've upload a picture for your perusal. Is this a paper cap as well? Replace?

Secondly, there's a multi-capacitor package that I'm not sure I should replace (also pictured below.) My understanding is that it's a ceramic package so might not need to be replaced. Opinions?

Thanks to you all for your kind help through the years!

Best,

Cliff

If it were me, I would leave both alone.
Your set is working.

Hallicrafters part number-46A151 is a four-section ceramic capacitor/s.
Known, back in the day as a... PEC (printed electronic circuit) or Couplate.

C11A C11B C11C and C11D
5000pF 220pF 220pF and 2000pf

should be in the parts list...

electrolytics replaced?

Yes, the electrolytics have been replaced.

Yes, the PEC is in the parts list, but should it be replaced?

I wouldn't replace the PEC couplate. Those caps are ceramic and should be fine.

As simplex1040 said, just leave it as it is.
If the domino cap is attached to tight tolerance resistors it is unlikely to be a paper or similar.
Since the PEC, couplate, is all capacitors it should be fine. The couplates that also contain resistors sometime have drifted resistor, I think this is because the process of manufacture is a compromise. Many times those have connection such as you can't measure all the components.
