hi fam
working on a kustom k150-2, had a super weak output.... someone had replaced the heat sinked germanium driver transistors with a mismatched set of si npn/pnp and one of the power transistors had base disconnected.
i found the "nte equivalents" and got the proper heat sinks off a donor carcass i have. of course replacing these resulted in the fuse instantly blowing quite spectacularly. Wink

when i had it apart, i disconnected that diode looking thing that sits between the power transistor from its clip/heat sink and one of the dang legs broke off right at the case.
i'm a fair solderhand, but no way to tag this puppy.

does anyone have a spare they wanna part with, or a substitute part? i believe this is being used as a thermostat?

any advice gratefully accepted with thanks
peace
PjP
