I updated my schematic PDF file in post #690 Charlie... The resistor was drawn but not identified...it's a 1.5k ohm. I think Rob missed it because it wasn't labeled..ooops..

Rob, can you make the change for us in your drawing? Thanks..

Sorry for any confusion. It was late and a long day for me.
That value for R-1 can be adjusted to a lower value if needed..I made it 1.5k for that particular Fairchild transistor. If you use another brand, value to get oscillation may need to be changed to a lower value, but's a place to start. Everything else works fine as is.
