I was thinking along the lines of a LM386 input but all this was to look at the basics of learning transistor AC calcs not building an amp per se. I have the DC stuff down pretty well but just learning the AC side of transistors. I didn't think about doing the RC calc and would have been just for the single resonant f not a broad band but a good heads up anyway so thx again. I'm still learning to use the scope and this was a bit of a jam for me. Time to put it down as a lesson learned and move on.
