The cap across the switch is a low cost ceramic.
The 10p is 10pico farad across the crystal.:)
 
Hi,

You cannot get an electrolytic that small. You could use a polyester (plastic) or ceramic. There are two ceramic 10pF caps either side of the crystal.
 
what is the actual label of 10pico farad on the ceramics casing?

i have bought two. one is labeled "10" and the other one "101"

my best guess is "10"
