>one question for the more JFET/tranny savvy of y'all out there..  Do you
think that my 2N3819 is a suitable replacement for the recommended 2n4391 or
2n4856?

It is not the ideal substitute, but the Modulus version of this VCO did use
the 2N3819. I've used MPF102 in my oscillators - also a non-ideal
substitute. More than likely the wrong fet will only cause high frequency
tracking errors, rather than any total failure to operate.
