Star Rider NTSC board cap kit

The Star Rider NTSC board doesn't seem that great.  I thought that perhaps I could get some better image quality out of it if I replaced the capacitors.  I do so in this video.  Frankly, I'm not sure if it's worth it, but I am going to document the parts that I used for posterity just in case.



Schematic symbol Manufacturer Product part Description
C001,C205,C207,C208 Nichicon UKL1V100KDDANA 10uF, 25V radial, 'low leak' (replaces two axials on original board)
C102, C405 Nichicon UKL1E470KEDANA 47uF, 25V
C209,C800,C801 Nichicon UKL1C471KPD 470uF, 16V
C701, C601 ? ? 1uF, 50V; I missed these and didn't replace these, just adding it here for future reference
