My RE 312B-4 has the following mods, which I highly recommend:
1.) 1N82A diodes replaced with RCA SK3089 diodes. I forget the details on
those.
2.) 7.1 uF tantalum capacitors to make it more peak-reading, as the Collins
302C wattmeter has.
One 7.1 uF capacitor goes between R3/R5/L1 and ground; the other one
between R4/R6/L2 and ground.
The negative lead on each tantalum capacitor is grounded.
Three 2.7 uF/20v in parallel = 7.1 uF.
73, Mike
