It seems that Mouser is out of stock of the J175s and there is a 26 week lead time. I cannot seem to find them anywhere else, is there something I can use as a substitute?

ebay has a seller in Sebring, Florida selling 10 J175s for $3.99 plus $3.25 shipping.  Delivery is usually less than a week.  I have had good experience with that seller ordering this part and a few others.

I once built a noise gate that asked for a J177 through hole, which is obsolete and harder to get than the J175.  I ended up using an smd version of the  J177 with an adapter board.  I also bought the J175 you linked since it was recommended as a substitute, and it worked just as well- in that circuit at least.

I bought the ones on ebay, thanks for the tip. They seemed to be Fairchild. I got 10 for pretty much what one would cost on Mouser with the others out of stock.

J176 might work as a sub which Mouser has in quantity. Don't have any here to test, though.

Thanks Brian, hopefully the ones I ordered from eBay will be good.

I remember ordered my J175 from Arrow. Have you checked them yet?

In case any one is wondering the 176 worked in my triplet build.
