Ooops, typo there Carl, should be 3CX3000A7 (in a Henry 2000D RF
generator). It's been brought to my attention that I should have cited
an operating temp for the baord. I can only guess, the enclosure is
fan cooled, and the caps themselves are USAP 85 degrees Celcius, so
well under that I would imagine.
