Hue,

I have some caps like those. What I do is try to find out the current rating and make a resonant series circuit with a coil and pass RF from a transmitter into a 50 ohm dummy load. See if they heat up.

In other words, are they still likely to be good ? I of course will maybe test them later, depending on info i get.
