Personally I would wait if you want a 257 with the 1969 finals as ALL 200 of the FINAL PRODUCTION RUN should be arriving at Copper Electronics sometime in November. Since the 257 has not been manufactured in well over a 1-1/2 year's now it may be very hard to find a NOS one. To answer your question there are presently 2 versions of the MAGNUM 257 floating around. #VERSION #1 ~ Magnum 257's Manufactured BEFORE Mid-October 2004 which ARE Different. #VERSION #2 ~ MAGNUM 257's that were Manufactured AFTER Mid October 2004 that will be the same as the 200 which Copper Electronics will be receiving. BOTH REVIEWS are located in the: Subscriber (Preview) » Product Reviews area of the Copper Forum. Then in December 2006 (Hopefully) there will be Version #3 with the ERF-2030 MOSFET Finals and MORE Power. Hope this help's, Lon Tech808 CEF808 N9CEF CVC#2 |

Moderator Note! Please CLICK on the LINKS Below for Version 1 & 2 with the 2SC1969 Finals. Version #3 will be powered by the ERF-2030 MOSFET when they are manufactured.
