Al, yes I understand the Q measurement but my question was really directed as to measurement by conventional means to establish capacitor leakage measurement when the capacitor(s) in question are enclosed in an IF can as I can't see how that can be done without taking the IF can apart and disconnecting the capacitors that are connected across the inductors (parallel tuned circuit)
As I see it the only capacitor in an IF can that can be checked for leakage whilst still connected in the IF can is any capacitor that is used for pri to sec coupling ie: top capacitive coupling.
