Hi Paul;
I was going to attempt the mods on the Oktava MC012 that you had published in Recording Magazine a few years back. You note, in that article that you can only use the Toshiba 2SK170BL J-FET. This part is no longer in production and I can't find a datasheet that shows the differences between the original 2SK170 and the BL-series.
Linear Devices (I think that's the company) now reproduces the 2SK170-series, but not the BL. Can I use that???? Or, what would you recommend as a modern-day counterpart? Why the BL series in the first place?
Thanks.
