m k:
Seems that my head can't do a correct mental image of that A2 dome top center.
Finally not much metal either, but still double sided that A2.
factory:
The A2 dome? it's one of those epoxy dome transistors that were made by Fairchild, or as Shango066 puts it "those crappy epoxy dome transistors that like to fail", this comment is mentioned nearly every time he sees those transistors, but I can't actually remember him having to change one, yesterdays video was no exception, the dead transistor wasn't epoxy based. :-//
Anyone looking for a 221A? there is another one on ePay in Germany;
https://www.ebay.de/itm/296880984875
Looks in slightly better shape than the one in Israel.

Shango066 is "A legend in his own lunchbox", so I wouldn't put much trust on any of his dribblings. >:(
You may have received the impression that I don't like him! :D
coppercone2:
I saw them break
TERRA Operative:
Y'all stop bidding on any and all 3458A's on Yahoo Auctions.
With a bit of luck, it's gonna be my Merry Christmas this year! :D
