Title: NEW GERMS!
Post by: micromegas on August 01, 2014, 06:53:31 PM
Some days you get sweet deals... (this batch also included some russian mini-pentodes and 30m of teflon cable plus a bunch of BC109C/BC107)

Ebay user bg2014-manue from Bulgary. I made him an offer on various things and he included some more tubes and the russian trannies for free... I still have to test all those 2N1309 though...

I also buy some stuff from him, very reliable. Sovtek in Ukraine is also among my favorite, Oleg the manage is a gentleman!

I still have to think about what method to use... too many transistor for the Geofex idea... a friend of mine has the Peak Atlas on his store, maybe it is time to borrow one.

Those black Valvos are diodes, yes?

Nice score.

My experience also. I have ordered a few lots from him with no hitch.

Yes they are. Now I have to find a use for them, those aren't the kind of diodes you put on your 1590A Klon!!

Acording to Cromesphere (who has them on his shop) it is 0.24v. Here is the datasheet (courtesy of the man himself): http://www.diyguitarpedals.com.au/shop/datasheets/OA7_Gold_Bonded_Germanium_Diode.pdf
