Well, if you look carefully at the OLDER cross references...

1306 = NTE 235
1307 = NTE 236

That's' a Slightly different beast of nature versus the 2166 or the 1969 - even the 2312.

What I thought was cute and need to be wary, Be VERY WARY of - is in using this type of part, you do not know that the pinout will work

- as in you may need to reorient the leads for some of these parts to meet the purposed hole it belongs in
Required? For that to be a drop in replacement - which to me, if it leads have to be reconfigured to meet the pinout - it's not a direct sub nor drop in - it's a replacement - yes, but only in performance alone - if that.
Not exactly a "drop in Replacement" in one sentence - two sentences would help those that are new or just visiting the realm of "Getting this Gosh Darn thing to work again..."
