If you have them in the right values, I don't see a reason not to.... If I were you I would use a 1n box type cap for C3 and either a 2.7n or 3.3n for C10. You could parrallel some caps to get you closer to the 3n mentioned in the build docs. If you don't have these values as poly box caps, give me a pm, I'm pretty sure I have both and would be happy to send some to you!

thanks, Dutch! what i have is a 1000pf and a 3000pf, 1000v ceramic. it was all i could find local. i have some box type coming, but i'm chompin at the bit. it's gonna be another few days, and it's all i need to finish it. maybe i'll socket them and try them both out. thanks for the offer!

Well, good luck, and show us a build report! I personally have no experience with ceramic caps of that value, but if it's according to the build doc you're ok!
