It's in Appendix C, Current Limiter board > Parts list. The other parts of the FAQ are correct. Ah, I see. I believe that may be the actual parts list from the monitor manual specified, which I believe was preliminary. I believe the the current limiting boards were both changed to the current part list in later versions, and hacked on the earlier versions to use the 2N3906. Speculation mostly...Tom added that table, so I don't vouch for that part ;-) -- Mark Jenison
