Rocket tweak C2

On a typical Rocket what will lowering the value of C2 down to 390pf do.

Since that is a coupling cap, I would say that reducing the value will cut even more lows that it already does.
As far as coupling caps go, that is a pretty low value to begin with.

What are you trying to do?

I was thinking about swapping the ceramic for a silver mica and only had a 390pf on hand, seems as though lowering that value is not a good move.

If you want to hear the effect of the change from ceramic to mica, you'll need to closely match the cap value.

Yup... thanks Zippy.... Mouser run....

Ange do you have a meter that will measure that low?

Caps rarely measure what they are said to be.
