But it can be tedious, people will often replace them all because once one goes, likely others of the same vintage will go soon enough. If you have the radio open, might as well change them all together. I don't know about this Racal, but some receivers are legendary in being really difficult to get to all the places that need replacement capacitors (which is another good reason to change them all once you are working on the radio).
