[TowerTalk] HAM-xx rotor phase shift cap

When I recently asked about a sluggish HAM-III rotor, several folks
suggested that the phase-shift cap might need replacement.  I have
no schematic, so can't ID the cap in the control box.

One fellow said you could hang a replacement on the terminal
block (he thought pins 3/7), if only to verify the problem.

Given the transition from Telex/HyGain to MFJ, there is no
knowledgeable help there, so....

....does anyone know the value of the cap, and which terminals it
is connected to?

73, de Hans, K0HB (Gimme 15 minutes and I'll have the beam in
your direction!)
