[Amps] SB-220 input SWR on 10M

Recently, the input SWR of my SB-220 has gone to about 3:1 on 10 CW.  I 
can still drive it close to full output, but it ain't right. Without 
much instrumentation or the smarts to go with it, I'm wondering if there 
is something I can do more or less blindly.  Does this likely indicate a 
failure in one of the three capacitors in the input circuit? Would it 
make sense just to get replacements and put them in?
