I've just started the rebuild of one of my PDP-8/Ms. This is an early
machine with the power supply mounted on the left of the chassis.
One potential problem I am slightly concerned about is that the front
two power transistors have been desoldered and removed. Does anyone know
if these are a vital part of the PSU and if so what the part numbers are
so I can try to source replacements?
You can see a picture here

If anyone else has a PSU of this type, could they take the opportunity
to take a few pictures for me. Would be really useful to have another
reference source for the rebuild.
All the best,
Toby
