Did the original Corsair employ the "AZNAC" design?
I read that the original Corsair used 4 discrete Schottky diodes in the 
mixer and that the Corsair II used 4 monolithic Schottky diodes in the 
mixer.

Also, looking at the Sherwood Receiver Test Data on the web, I see it only 
lists data for the "Corsair" which would I would assume is the original 
version (?).

Any insight would be appreciated.  Thanks.
