Galaxy Diode replacement: MA27TA, MA27WA

[liquidh8]

Ok, a while back, I remember seeing somewhere that the MA27TA is similar to the KB362, and, it can be subbed by using a few 1n4148's in series.

Is this true? also, what about the MA27WA?

I see RF parts has these diodes, i am going to order a few to have in stock as the galaxy's all seem to use them. But it would be nice to sub them with something for the troubleshooting I am doing on y DX2517. Thanks guys.

Yep.

You can call Galaxy or Ranger and they can give you the details.
I did. Can tell ya that the MA27T-A is two iN4148's in series. Can't remember the details about the MA27T-W . . .
