Dear Mel and others,

Unggg. (Worried sounds!)

I think you want to use it at about 0.5MHz. According to the data sheets I 
found, the 747 has a gain-bandwidth product of 1.5MHz, so at 0.5MHz it will 
have a gain of 3 (or thereabouts - the GBPs won't be too exact). The 741 seems 
to have a GBP of 1MHz, so at 0.5MHz it will have a gain of 2ish.

For your circuit to work well, you need the op-amp gain to be well above the 
gain of the amplifier (or whatever) you are building with it. I didn't look at 
the circuit diagram someone kindly pointed us to, but if (at a guess) it aims 
for a gain of 10 then you need an op-amp with a gain of many times that - say 
100 to be on the safe side. At 0.5MHz this suggests a GBP of some tens of MHz.

Mel - I think I have a couple of AD844 chips lying unwanted at work. If I 
recall aright, they have a GBP of 60MHz. Would you like a couple? I could 
easily drop them in the post if you want, if you send me a snail-mail address. 
('Fraid I don't have an up-to-date callbook.) If you don't want to put your 
postal address on the newslist, my email is [email protected] .

73,
