Charlie, be careful what you wish for. Several knowledgeable people have
asserted that the design change to a stouter tuning capacitor simply made
the bandswitch the most likely arc location, and that's a lot harder to
replace.
You might try contacting KM1H - I believe Carl has done a lot of SB-220 6M
conversions, which might leave him with a few original SB-220 (or 221)
capacitors in the junque box.
