Has anyone had any experience with the Weber Copper Top solid state
replacement rectifiers?

I just ordered a pair to replace the 26Z5W diodes in my R-390.  They are
supposed to be plug in and have the same electrical drop characteristics as
the vacuum tube.

 I was quoted a price of $10.00 each for them.  That is a cheaper price than
buying new tubes.

The only tubes I have ever had fail in my R-390 are the 26Z5W and the 6082.
