Hi Andrew,

An alternative might be to build N0SS Tom Hammond's noise gen circuit 
that you will find on his web site and also on the Elecraft site.  It 
uses a zener diode, a couple of 2N2222s and a small handful of passive 
components.  I built one up on perf board last weekend in a couple of 
hours, and it works really well.  You don't need a printed circuit 
board, ugly style or "Manhattan" construction is quite OK.
