Hi Lou,
I don't have the information you need. Seems strange that you have "the
instructions" and do not have the transistor part numbers.
I have had a similar situation with my Hercules II amplifier. The bias
regulation transistors are shown on the bias control board schematic,
however they are not mounted on that board. They are mounted on the
chassis. Since they are not soldered to or mounted on the PCB, they are
not included in the parts list for that schematic page. That is fair
enough, except they are also not included in any parts list for the
chassis either.
I only found replacements by cross referencing the numbers on the
transistors.
Good luck!
