No dice!
Ok, so I replaced the transistor with a 2n2907a, I also replaced the 33uf cap with a higher voltage tolerance one. Now, when I hook up two 9v batteries, I get 18.96v going into the circuit and at pin 7 of the lm741, at pin 2 I get 6.86v, pin 3 I get 9.44 volts and at pin 6 I get around 3v.
At the transistor emitter I get the full voltage, at the base I get 18.16 and at the collector 18.75v.
What the heck is going on here? Appears as if there is little to no regulation going on.
Cheers eh man for the quick response. My instinct was to go for the tranny but I want to keep repairs to a minimum ideally.
Thanks again
Dave
It could be that you have battery power and adapter power, try just using one or the other, ie remove the battery.
