HI Tom,

You're in luck. I have one of the largest (if not the most complete)
collections of Cushcraft assembly manuals etc. anywhere.

According to my notes, the lowest capacitor, the one closest to
ground is around 78 pFd and the upper one is around 138 pFd. I'm sure
anything near that value will be sufficient.
