In for more basic problem but query here , should anyone know, as only a
Polish reference out there.
All seems original in there and o/p devices TO3 Motorola, badged SCSP1 and
SCSN1.
Presumably , as only +/-24V rails 3055/2955 would be adequate , if required,
but if anyone knows for sure, for future reference.

** The devices are DARLINGTONS - dickhead.

Did you not notice the total absence of DRIVER transistors - eh ???

The pair are MJ2501 and MJ3001.

This schematic shows MJ3001 and MJ2501 as equivalents for SCSN1 and SCSP1:

These are Darlington pairs, so they have much greater hFE than the
2N3055/MJ2955. They're only about a fiver a pair from Farnell.

The info is out there, for all, in ASCII format now

** If someone fits 2N3055s and MJ2955s instead of the correct types, the
transistors will run hot but deliver low power.

Seen done it a few times and the repair tech could not figure it out.
