I have to thank Lee, Glen,Joe and Don for assisting me with a problem which made me think I was a rookie...... I ordered the parts to build 5 DCP I had sitting here and after receiving all the parts from Mouser about 2 weeks ago, I started soldering them together. When finished, I installed a DCP in a fresh 700B WOPL I had just finished and when I applied power, there was no DELAY, the relays on the DCP immediately clicked in (think turn on thump).....
So, I monkeyed around and had to take the remaining transistors, still in the original packing and do some measurements... They didn't measure up.... I get an OPEN reading between the base and emitter even when forward biased...... Just because you got new parts, does NOT mean they will work.... Apparently......
