Is there anything sacred about a 1N295? Is it like most silicon or germanium diodes, whichever the case may be? Not complaining, just curious since I have others on hand.

Well I have now had my first ever diode (a 1N295) that was a partial open ?? and another shorted ? under load BTW all of the components checked good even with the board out of circuit and the 68 ohm lifted MN4C that maxed out on the pot would only show 47 Watts and rallign on the null would only let it go to 60 W. when in fact three other meters (including a Bird) said my TR5 was a flat 90 W. A big thank you to Chuck W3CVD who supplied a replacement pair and that did do the trick. . In any case 1N295's are available through Surplus Sales of Nebraska @ $2 each plus shipping. www.surplussales.com A second source is apparently www.4starelectronics.com Thank you to the list responders. 73's to all.
