Tom,

Fairchild was definitely known for its compressors, still very valued today. Have you tried gearslutz?

Good luck

Hi All:

Knobs for threshold and release, so it's obviously a compressor of some sort. Does anyone have any documents on it? I need a connections-terminals list and power supply requirements. Thanks!

For the curious, it's covered in Patent 3281706 but I don't have time to suss that out right now.
