Excellent. Thanks Steve for that data point. And Don, NN8B, who replied too. Both have the Corsair 2.

So they had switched by 1986.

Anyone with an original Corsair (Corsair 1, so to speak)? I think that might be the rig they made the switch to schottky diodes.

It would just take a second to check the schematic in the manual on the RF Mixer board :-)


My original corsair manual lists the mixer diodes on the RF mixer board (D9 thru D12) as MBD-101 which checks out to be 7v low noise shottky diodes.
