Many thanks guys....and Half Life hit the jackpot..the datasheet actually states it's a drop-in replacement for the 2SK146...with a better noise figure....the Amber may live again...!!...I was nearly giving up...actually started looking for a used QA403... I do need to come clean and admit I don't own any Carver gear...although have repaired some in my time. ...does that count...?

@Kurt - Discogs is simply bloated. Kevin Lewandoski (who i used to work with at Intel) had a great idea, initially, but then he made the tool a 'once size fits all' tool. Can find a recording, ok, create the entry yourself - but DON'T insert Bonnie Rait under 'Folk' music! Don't create multiple releases because YOUR copy doesnt match that of another entry that utilizes THE EXACT SAME INFO other than the genre or order of performers. There is a lot of chaff that goes with discogs: Too many genres for one recording. Infighting among submitters/moderators with no guidance on how to avoid hiccups. Sellers who are shady, buyers who want the world for nothing (yes, I know, it is no different than eBay). All-in-all what started out as method to curate ones collection has become a black hole of useless information. Even the Forums have become polluted with politics, in-fighting, and other facets that you find on facebook. I keep discogs around for one reason: Insurance purposes. If something were to happen to my collection (fire, storm damage, burglary), then I have an idea as to replacement value. But I WILL NOT buy or sell from the site.

I can't complain, Rick. Just getting older, not wiser!

I just took a quick run to one of my favorite food trucks (It's a "thing" around here) and they were playing this; I was surprised as most of them don't provide music...

Boy, this sounds good on my Mission 770 computer speakers...powered of course, by my Caver M1,0t amp. Love it, love it love it! RBIRD... I mean HappyEar!
