Hello,

Ok guys in the other thread I got some great tips from you and decided to go with Starving student hybrid. I have already ordered some of the parts but I cant find anything like this from ebay>>

Cisco PSA-18U

Can anyone recommend me a different psu which would be ok to use with Starving Student hybrid this one. The cheaper the better but still somethig that could be reused later for something else so not total crap.

Thanx

There are gobs of these on ebay. Try searching without the dash between "PSA" and "18U", as in "Cisco PSA18U". I just got a listing of 12, with another 10 in ebay stores:
Cisco PSA18U, Computers Networking, Electronics items on eBay.com

Good choice, the SS is an awesome little amp as can be seen in the mega ss thread. I'm sure you'll have fun making it and enjoying the results. I use mine daily

Hello,

So I am ordering my parts from mouser and it turns out that one of the parts in the BOM is obsolete and I am not sure what to choose as a replacement part? The part I am talking about is...

0.1uF 63V film capacitor and its part number is 539-150104K100AA


could I replace it with this one?


BF014D0104KDD

Everything else seems to be available as is.

 

[smeggy]

I think the commonly preferred value now is 0.22uF 63V

 

[Arlekiin]

Thank you friendly and helpful Dalek

Another thing I am trying to decide on is...


This

or

This


Or is there anything cheaper around worth getting?

the latter one is quite good. a very nice hakko clone. It is worth the investment if you are planning on more DIY projects in the future. Else it might be cheaper to go for a basic soldering iron

 

[Arlekiin]

Thank you again guy's gonna take take the latter one then. Can not work without good tools.

Can I ask, where'd you find your 19j6 tubes?

 

[Arlekiin]

The answer is I have not found them yet. But I am checking them out on ebay and HERE
If anyone can recommend me a good place id be interested. Its easy to get them in US but here...well im new here aswell so I just dont know.

 

[cms5423]

it's not easy to get in the US?! I can't find anyone that has them at a reasonable price! Have you?

 

[Arlekiin]

Radio Tubes, Vacuum Tubes, Thermionic Valves, Electron Tubes

<< They say you should email to them about 19J6.

http://www.dantiques2.com/vpasp/shop...ch=Yes&sppp=30

<< They have them for 5$ which seems reasonable.

Vacuum Tubes Radio Tubes - 5,000 different tubes in stock - Over 10 million tubes!

<< Did not manage to find anything here but it was because this place is a nightmare to navigate

19J6

<< They have them for 15$


All I could find

 

[smeggy]

Yeah, No 2 iron would be my pick as well.

 

[cms5423]

Yeah, the d'antiques place only has 1 available, and the other ones don't have any, or are 15$ per tube which is ridiculous
