Yes, Mike, this same question was asked a few months ago and it seems 
that the 2SC5739 is now being supplied in place of the original 2SC2166 
for Q6. It is evidently an improved version. You definitely have the 
right part.  Good luck with the rest of the K2. It'll soon be on the 
air.

Like many of us on here, Mike. You have evidently caught the Elecraft 
bug and there'll be no stopping you with other mojo kits from Elecraft.
