>  I have read the repair and diagnosis for the power module for the

>  and the suggested replacement is "MJ2955 (Radio Shack 276-2043)". The
>  originaql transistor was a germanium PNP in a TO-3 case. Radio Shack has
>  become useless for electronic components and they know nothing about
>  this part.

>  Does anyone have the "specifications" for this transistor, so maybe I
>  can find another replacement.
