I called ICE and they had new caps back to me the next day for both units.
I beefed up one of the units in the 10M section with extra caps obtained
from Mouser.

Subject: [TowerTalk] ICE419a Band Pass Filters
Bought a pair of ICE419a filters, they arrived about six weeks ago, and I
found the 10m section to be faulty on one of the units (high SWR); I believe
the 270pF capacitors need replacing but have been unable to obtain parts
from the distributors. I now see from their web page that a new model has
been introduced - let's hope the 10m problem has been resolved and potential
buyers get a better warranty than I did.
