Apologies if this is slightly double-posting-ish from my earlier post in the Ken Stone sub forum, but does anybody happen to know a source of (now obsolete) LM394 dual transistors, or have a handful they are willing to part with? They keep cropping up in circuits I wish to build.

I think the SSM2210 is a replacement.

Thanks Gary

Kinda pricey though. Time to put Plan B into action and match my own transistors.

I have some new LM394 DIPs for trade. PM me if you are still interested with a trade.

Futurelec is selling them at a nice price

Thanks snooki, but it looks like they're out of stock. Probably have been for quite some time unless I'm much mistaken. Or were you able to order some recently?

I got a set of 5 LM394's off ebay from a Hong Kong seller...haven't had a chance to actually try them out, and it took its sweet time getting to me, but $20.88 for 5, and no additional shipping...can't really complain unless they don't work.

Not currently considering letting go of any though. The ebay seller was jk_parts.

you can allways get 2212 (8 SOIC) which should be the smaller new version
of the 2210

and then solder it using an adapter like that:

by the way , did someone try the 2212 yet?

I have excess 5 pcs of brand new LM394CH (National Semiconductor); picture attached... If anyone interested, I can sell them. All checked on the Yusynth VCO module.
