Here you are purchasing a total of (1) YAESU VC1 / RT18B300VC 300PF AIR VARIABLE CAPACITOR
This item was previously used in an FT-101-E, it was tested & then carefully removed to be sold as parts.
This very popular item unfortunately does not have capacitance value listed on it...
however its value is listed in the Yaesu service manual as  300pf. VC1 # RT18B300VC
I've tested VC1 # RT18B300VC, the photos show the readings I get on a Fluke meter set to read capacitance.
Photo #2  I have used a .047 cap to show you the fluke is functioning correctly and properly set.
Photo #3 shows a reading of  nF = .71   (uF = 0.00071  /  pF = 710)
Photo #4 shows nF = .38   ( uF = 0.00038 / pF = 380)
Fluke meter and its cables are used for demonstrative purposes and are not included in the sale.
The item may have signs of age related wear, patina, et cetera, as it is 39 years old.
