Re: [TenTec] Corsair 560 further notes on the rig

Chris,
Even the heat sink compound sold at remaining Radio Shack stores should 
be fine or replacement on the new transistors.  Most finals are a pair 
of identical transistors or similar power rating at least.  You should 
replace both transistors even if you only find one bad one.  That is to 
ensure you have the same power gain in each.
In some cases, you might also need the driver transistor.  Be sure and 
check that it is not shorted.  Usually the failures will be opens or shorts.
Good Luck!
