Hi all,

When you replace the capacitor bank in an SB-220, considering the difference 
in sizes between new caps and the old ones, how are you securing the caps to 
the chassis?

I've bought the caps and the resistors, connected them as per the manual, but 
they have to be mechanically secured to the chassis somehow.  I don't want to 
use the same arrangement (the plastic plates) as before, I want more 
breathing room for the caps.

What have you been doing about this, and if you haven't done it, what would 
you suggest?

I've got some pictures of what I'm talking about at http://www.kd4rbg.com if 
you're not familiar with this amp.  Scroll to the bottom of the page.

Thanks in advance,

Jeff/KD4RBG
