Replacing this Variable Resistor?
I need to replace a 5kΩ variable resistor in a radio amplifier I'm working on. It went 'pop' when I was adjusting the q.current and the mid point voltage.
Where could I find a replacement? The ones I find online have three terminals while this one has two. Thanks |
