I accidently sent the previous message to the net instead of the editor
server node.  What I was going to correct was the statement that the
NE5205 was being used as a video amp.  It was being used as an amplivier
for a broadcast TV signal.  It is a wideband amplifier with four connections:
power, ground, input, and output.  Much simpler than a 733.  (Isn't that a
dual 741?  Barf city.  Use an LM324 if you need a good cheap op amp.)

Although the NE5205 is intended for frequencies two orders of magnitude higher
than video, it might be a good solution for soemone who needs a simple circuit
There might be a similar part for video work.
