[TV] Re: Mitsubishi CS-27303 Stereo TV

["Steve J Bellis" <Steveradramt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the reply,  I plan to just dab RTV on those Cap leads at the 
connector I was able to get some good contact length out of them going into 
the existing sockets and the leads are very snug.  Don't think removing the 
connector and soldering is needed.  I can use a dab of RTV to secure the 2 
caps together as well.

Guess that will be my plan, don't want to get too carried away, never used 
the pip anyway as it required an active aux device for an input.  Will 
finish it up next weekend, need to go back to my real job tonight.

Thanks again,
Steve
