       The 75159 (the line driver) should be socketed on all model Bs.
It's a
       very common failure point on Econets, causing the line to jam.

       We used to get ours from the RS catalogue - do they not stock them
any
       more?

The last time I tried to get RS to supply me anything, they insisted on a
business account. I generally have to rely on the likes of Maplin. They are
very happy to supply this part, as long as I don't mind ordering 25 of them
at £3.15 a pop - Not too appealing as you can imagine.
