Good question! As our Paraset is only ever effectively used for 'demo' purposes with a low 150-180V HT, we've had no issues in that department. However, if you were to use it with a full whack of 250 - 300V, then I would personally only use air spaced caps.
Thanks for another well produced and informative video Chris. Best wishes Clare
Thanks Clare - again!
Do these plastic variable capacitors survive without burning up in the transmitter?
Regards,
Thomas
