Just purchased a Texas Star Nice looking very clean Sweet Sixteen DX1600. Couldn't pass it up for the price i paid. When i opened it up to my surprise Has one item installed that I never Heard of, Bipolar Transistors=(RFP2879 17-3Q) If i needed a replacement. What could I Install in place of this item.??? I went to RF Parts and they don't list Them. Would a Pair of HG 2879 work? Any input would be appreciated.:(:(

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • @ Hambones amps:
    Does anyone know if you can replace the 2290 in a galaxy dx 93t twin turbine with a 2sc2879 red dot? If so, what would have to be tuned?
  • @ ShadowDelaware:
    Hambones the entire amp section would have to be retuned, and the rf transformers re wrapped.
