Been working on a 73 Satellite 400/727. It had an ignition condenser on it when I bought it but I was wondering if it is necessary with electronic ignition. If not is there any benefit/drawback to having it anyway? Thanks in advance for any help.

there is no ignition condenser in the electronic ignition system. What you are thinking is it is in reality a noise suppressor designed to keep ignition noise out of the radio.

Did some checking and it turns out repros are kind of pricey. So my new question is With modern radios does this serve any purpose other than looking correct?
