I also touched up some poor solder joints.

The aim was to reduced the white noise (hiss) when the Gain is anywhere above 2. Sadly, no change in the background hiss...but I am pretty confident in the new electrolytics going forward.

RD112-100 Capacitor Replacement 2

The small 150uf 6.3VDC capacitor arrived...don't know why it came separate...anyway...it all fits in nicely now.
the final cap is a Sprague Vishay AS series. I still don't see this small capacitor in the 2100 GD-2A schematic...but it must serve a purpose.
