The third hit was <http://www.rfparts.com/misctran.html>
I made a mistake in my post, I stated Richardson Electronics had the part, it is in fact RF Parts. The fifth and last hit gives a foreign (to USA) reference. The translated URL is <http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=fr&u=http://www.abcelectronique.com/forum/archive/index.php/f-1-p-20.html&prev=/search%3Fq%3DSO565J%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26sa%3DG> Line number 4821 (the lines are numbered) is a URL. That URL brings you to a discussion about the part. This is where I got what little specs that I posted. Kinda a convoluted way to find data, but sometimes you have to gig. Not everything is obvious. 73 Glenn WB4UIV At 11:47 PM 05/27/06, you wrote: >Links would help because I tried Googling SO565, SO565J, S0565, and S0565J >with no >such positive results. >Gary > >Glenn Little WB4UIV wrote: > > > Google shows that Richardson Electronics has the SO565J SCR.
