Hey gang! I just ordered a Duocast PCB and I am super pumped! As I am sourcing parts I am having a hard time finding an OC71 - However I have a random assortment of Ge transistors from 3pdt. Is there a way to socket Q2 so can experiment with different transistors? Like, should I just solder individual pins from a sip socket? According to a few builders having a Ge transistor with an hFE around 80 seems to be ideal. Thanks for any and all information you can provide.
