Have you ever seen a spleen that large?
For the outputs on a W5m, I'd not bother if you're doing a new build. The easily available S265 from Heyboer is quite fine, especially at voltages and currents that would make a 16458 say 'Uncle'. The new S265 can have taps installed in any set of 10% increments you ask for( and especially in multiple sets ). Can't get that in a '458...let alone the undersize '309.
cheers,

Thanks Doug. So far, everything is testing out OK. I made a bone head testing mistake at first but all seems to be within spec, so I’m going to soldier on with what I have.
It is my hope that pops, old man time, and temperature didn’t put the hurt down too much on the 16309 W5M#1 amp. I’m willing to take a risk (if it shorts) to get it running.
