For anyone searching the email list archives: Elecraft Support (who reply incredibly fast) have confirmed that both components are correct (gold-blue-gray-silver is correct for RFC6 and for Q6, 2SC5739 is a substitute for a 2SC2166.

My K2 RFC6 is gold-blue-gray-silver. Is this correct? I.e. all my other RFCs have the tolerance band *after* the three bands for the value whereas RFC6 has it *before" them. Just another manufacturer's quirk? My K2 Q6 driver transistor is marked "C5739" which doesn't match the parts list (says it should be a 2SC2166). Is this a substitute or an incorrect component? Many thanks, Graham G3ZOD. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.
