tests so far ::
PS! -- although the following setups perform well the real tings may not coz the Spice models use highly accurate fixed current sources - - - while there's no indication the real 78Lxx-s had any implemented //// the last time i tested my real 78Lxx-s showed an ulta poor performance where the voltage started to drop already at !!!above 30-/40 mA drain and significantly differed from the nominal at 50mA (while i didn't notice them getting hot -- so that a possible thermal prot. feature could have had engaged ???)
partial apx. match to d/s ::
