Looked at the eBay caps, they are pretty much what EVATCO have: They do have ones that fit.

I salvaged some from my junk box. I did not think I had any.

That's a lot of multiple posts, but yes it is a trap with this forum not going to the last page by default, instead of the first.

Music may sound "tinny". One of the joys of being a moderator on the American site,if there are duplicate post, even ones own, I have a delete button.

Hi I tried an AG3 fuse clip on a 6U7G. It was a very tight fit & looked a bit strange but it did work. The clip readily accepts solder too.

In desperation (this is a Farm with engineering capacity) provided it does not foul a can, & short, an "R" clip also works.

I wish the delete button here worked but that anomaly is of my own making. The button has been there for years but has no script to power it. It may end up being a Christmas project, when I also make the changes to the Wanted and For Sale forum.
