Hey,
I built a Marigold Fuzz with an AC127 trannie, and am having trouble getting the correct voltage.
Not sure if it's because it's not an OC140, but these are the Q3 Collector volts I'm getting with the AC127 :
3.3v zener = 0.53v
4.3v zener = 0.98v
5.1v zener = 1.48v
5.6v zener = 1.63v
No zener = 2.16v
I don't have higher value zeners than 5.6v, but will try and source some.
Just curious if anyone has an idea about whats going on.
thanks
Frank
