130 Ohm Thermistor Tip! - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

Hi!

If anyone's looking for 130 Ohm NTC Thermistors and has got T.Q. or Tek remains, please don't forget that their Oscilloscope Main Frames and Plug-Ins all have odd numbers of Mullard VA1040s dotted here and there, so if you scrap any of these remains, please salvage the thermistors first - I've seen them in o/p stages, battery motor control circuits, ALC circuits, Tandberg L.T. voltage regulators & all sorts of things!
