    Can you be more specific as to what year and model you are working on?

    In this case, it’s the same-old troublesome 1947-48 Johnson TD20.

    Vishay and Orange Drops are two capacitors which will substitute for the original tin can caps if you can’t find them.

    I’d think the Illinois Capacitor MPW (or MWR) part 0.22uF @ 630V should be right-on for this application. Probably fits inside the old can, as well.
