I sure hope you meant "series"!-)

I hope you are an underclassman, who hasn't actually taken any college
level classes in Electronics Design or Circuit Evaluation. If not,
you definitly ask for your money back, because you didn't learn anything.

2 470uf in parallel is close to 1000uf. This was on the Extra class
Ham exam. I got my ticket 40 years ago. Why do you think an Amateur
Radio Operator should necessarily have college level Electronics Design
Experience? This is an Amateur newsgroup, unless cross-posting.
