Hi guys, I was searching for the OC44 germanium PNP transistors and I found these SFT308.

The question is, the SFT308 is equivalent to the OC44/OC71 in treble booster circuitry like a DAM Red Rooster, Dallas Rangemaster etc??



Thanks in advance!

You could try googling for datasheets for each of those transistors, you could even just try the transistor and see if it works, you might need to tweak some resistors to get it biased correctly.... :thumbsup
