The LM 158 and LM358 are the same part, just different screening levels and
packaging.
For commercial applications at normal temperatures, the LM358 is fine.

Thanks Bruce turned out to be C7 leaky. I actually used a LM358 dip with
wires kind of a ugly bug. Then realzed that really was not the issue. It was
c7.
I do not have any lm158s can or dip. Pretty sure they would be hard to come
by these days also.
Something to look for at hamfests this year.
Regards
Paul.
