387.0. "Valve related components" by WOTVAX::MEAKINS (Clive Meakins) Wed Dec 02 1992 09:13

    I'm looking for some parts to built a valve line-level preamp, it's a
    circuit in the December ETI.. Not sure it'll be that good, but it
    shouldn't cost much and looks fun to try.
    
    I've not played with valves before and don't know sources for
    components.
    
    Can anyone suggest where to get a transformer with 220V 150mA and 6V 1A 
    secondaries?
    
    Also, where's a good place to source valves (CV2493) and I need to know
    what each pin on the valves correspond to.  Jives - do I need to read
    through the conversations you had in AUDIO?

    Thanks Jonathan for phone and mail advive re .0
    
    Anyone got a transistor equivalents book to hand?  I'm having trouble
    finding TIP49 and 2N5058, are there sensible equivs?  They're for the 
    hybrid preamp, the HT line is 300V.

    Clive,
    
    The CV number is an old MoD designation, I don't if know valves are still
    commonly known outside using this type of part number. Do you know the
    "civvy" equivalent number? There should be one; for example, a CV4024
    is also known as an ECC83 (double-triode).
    
    I don't have all the equivalents in my head. It's just that after 16
    years as a radar tecchie in the RAF my brain is still cluttered with
    such things!
