On a lark, I decided to do some research to see if there is a current-production tube that could be used in place of the 5687's in an RSA Raptor. What do you think about using a pair of JJ/Tesla ECC99 in place of the 5687's in a Raptor?- MonkeyMan

Which battery do we want for the Hornet?
I hope that we can have a discussion in this forum to decide on which NiMH battery we want Ray to swing a group-buy deal for us. Personally, I think the iPower 9.6V @ 220mAH will give the best combination of longevity and voltage. What say you?- MonkeyMan

OPA Upgrade? Compatibility?
Would any of THESE work in a RSA HR-2? If so, would a socket adapter be needed and if so is there one available "off-the-shelf" somewhere? Even if these could be used in the HR-2, do you think they would be a significant upgrade over the stock AD797 setup?- MonkeyMan
