Quick update for Europe:
- Shipping info received for almost all participants: click here
- I bought a box of padded envelopes.
- It is not too late to change to tracked & signed service - thanks to our wonderful Santa there will be 8 matched Jfets for each board, it would be shame if they get lost in transit.

I missed out here. Whaaaaa, whaaaa, whaaa
Patience...
There are boards destined for the store shortly. They will work with the
Fairchild or Toshiba type pinouts. I believe arrangements are also being
made for Nutube availability.
Mr. Pass, you're a prince. I was working on sourcing the JFET's and you had anticipated all of us. Pretty much speechless from your generosity.
I wish you joy in your giving. You've certainly touched a lot of people here.

Happy New Year everyone.
No I have to get back to matching those Jfets......
Thank you so much for the generous gift Papa and wishing you have a fantastic 2019!!! Happy New Year Mr Pass and Happy New Year all of diyAudio!
Indeed, and perhaps it's much more of a gift than he realizes for some of us.
Perhaps a thread specifically for pictures of our B1 Korg builds that result from this generous gift would be a fitting way to show our thanks to Papa.
Not so bad. All matched up.
Wow that was fast! Probably elves or magic (or both) were involved.
Part of the secret is that Variac gave me a nice lead spreader for the
jfets that somebody (I seem to recall his brother) had made with a 3D
printer. You push the Fet into that first and it puts the leads at .1" for
the test socket.
And I use my HP digital multimeter from 1972, still runs great.
The rest is having some nice music running. In this case, Jazzanova.

after so many years of doing it , he developed so called marching sorting method ;
using just Power of PapaMind , and they're (JFets) marching and falling in proper alignment on the table
You Shall Match Now!
I learn today Nutube inside connections with his output pins schematic and soldering pads on the pcb.
1A, 2A = 1P, 2P the same thing but two different names A for anode or P for plate.
Picture five is the Korg DHT direct heated twin triode compared to 12AU7| ECC82 indirectly heated twin triode symbols

All Hail to Mr.Pass!

Matching Jfets with music in the background being amplified by Jfets - certainly good therapy. Are you sure Mr Pass there was not a nice glass of red anywhere to be seen.
I love the use of the 46 year old HP meter - now they were the days when good test equipment was made by the great companies like HP and Tektronix to name two.
