Could you send a link for the K4POZ caps?   I could not find it.....

I did find http://k4poz.com/ with stuff for sale, but no caps.

I am looking at changing to "Snap In" on my Ten Tec Titan and using the wd7s
board to mount them.

I am also curious where John found the "Snap In" caps so cheap.....

K4POZ sells 390uF/450V 105deg on QTH.COM. I've bought many for amps 
and never had an issue. His are 2.50 each.
