Don,

I did extract the old Q7 without any damage or problems.

I was looking at the spec sheet for the 2N3904 after getting your last
suggestion and after ordering the 2N4124 from Elecraft. Do you think the
2n3904 is a superior replacement for the 2n4124? Any reason to suspect it
would not work or why the 2n4124 was chosen for that circuit?

73,
Jerry
