Sure, just make sure you have that turn-off resistor on the base of the
TIP, otherwise leakage from the first transistor may cause it to be
partially on, and get rather hot, when it should be off.

I would have a link to http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/find.cgi?KC6ETE-9 here
in my signature line, but due to the inability of sysadmins at TELOCITY to
differentiate a signature line from the text of an email, I am forbidden to
have it.
