    Description

    This auction is for the
    Premium
    KK4HXJ rE-Cap kit for
    Realistic HTX-100 Radio/Communications Transceivers
    I offer these kits to simplify the process of obtaining the necessary components to do a DIY capacitor replacement
    These are simply the Highest Quality Capacitors available anywhere
    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 manual, well documented.
    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.
