Hmm, I've thought about this a bit. I think one could make
up replacement SLT modules with little PC boards and SOT23
transistors and 0805 or 0603 SMT resistors. SLT modules had
very little on them, something like 2 transistors and 4
diodes and some resistors.
I was thinking about this in relation to keeping a mid-size
360 running for a few hours a month at a museum, like the
1401 at CHM. But, it would sure work for actual full-time
operation, too.
