yeah, i was searching tonight, found those and others. was looking for a heat sync type.

I asked earlier what the wattage was on this 300ohm resistor and it was not a big deal a few posts ago.
I think i overlooked the idea that no matter what, the wattage was much higher and stands to reason by memory its always been a problem child when free floating as it was from the factory.

I just made a heat sync for a 500ohm resistor and it worked somewhat ok,, but still gets too hot for my liking.

on the loktal socket, take it easy guys, i did not see the post warning, i went out and fixed it.. let me focus on getting a running chassis and put my loktals on order. I wasnt contradicting anyone or doing what i want ignoring your adivce. I was just trying to keep progress going.

i know now i can solve the 300ohm resistor, now i need to figure out why i dont have short wave bands,, speaker has faint noise, thats all.
