    RM Station 550

    I used a nte152 seems to work now but it is not heat sinked yet. I can not find bd179's for under 20 dollars US. Also if you run acrossed The schematic I would like a copy. Thanks It no longer has that tunneling on the scope trace so that is a plus.

    TR9 in the newer amp can use a NTE152 the version i have uses a BD179 or NTE182 But they have different current ratings but seems both versions use the same parts as each other all but TR9. maybe remote mount a NTE152 in it's place? Did they find they could use a part with less current handling...

Total to date of parts replaced: TR10 IC2 IC1 TR7...
