Re: SR-150 PWR Supply
Well Dave. if in 1963 you had one slot smaller than the other, you were ahead of the game; the house I am in [1956] was all non polarized, except for the Garage, washing machine and outdoor outlets.

Re: SR-150 PWR Supply
Ok, but for me during my ham years starting in 1963 the smaller of the two

Re: S-38C Question

Re: S-38C Question
I should have added that changing to a polarized plug requires re-wiring the on/off switch. Not needed if the chassis passes the "hot" test. See https://geojohn.org/Radios/MyRadios/Safety.html

Re: S-38C Question
Value is not critical, but voltage rating needs attention. I would use a 250v A.C. rated disc ceramic, or else one with a rating greater than 1000v D.C. I would also check (or replace) the resistor
