Semiconductors

TR1 BC109. IC2 MC1310P Stereo Decoder IC. Both these items including all other components are still available, at the time of writing from the following link Cricklewood Electronics CCTV and Electronic Components

Miscellaneous

Tinned copper wire for interconnections on circuit board. Plain matrix board or PCB. NB Do not attempt to use strip board or the risk of stray capacitance may be a problem. Screened audio cable, with phono plugs for connecting to stereo amplifier. Choice and style is up to you, but preferably use separate cables rather then the double core screen type as this sort of cable may lead to poor stereo separation due to stray capacitance. Vero Pins. 9 Volt power source, preferably independent of the FM receiver power supply to insure actuate tuning stability and hiss free stereo reception . 14 Pin IC socket, essential for mounting this IC as it may be your last chance of getting hold of another, because they are old stock and no longer made.
