I have 10 of these red cera-mite caps, and I have no idea if they are good
for TC duty - any one have any idea? The part number on them is 715C, then
they have 8422 below that.  They're rated 1300pF, and 15 KVDC.  I was
thinking about parallelling them all for a cap for a 9/30 NST.  Would these
work ok? Thanks,
Sean Taylor
