From the post

Gotten a few requests for this one and I finally got around to doing it. It's a bit of a hodge-podge–3 dual opamps, a hex inverter, and a JFET mu-amp array. Definitely not fitting this in a 1590B, but will fit nicely in a 1590BB with the pots board mounted. Info and schematic here.

  • 200K at row O near the JFETs: printed clearly, unusual value
  • the two 1uF capacitors are drawn as grey rounded boxes rather than round cans; type (film or electrolytic) not stated
