Try MP11A, MP35, or MP38A.Thanks guys, now I’m on Ukrainian NPN hunt
Thanks a lot dudeTry MP11A, MP35, or MP38A.
I’m in the UK. I’ve been getting 1306s from Langex but I’m trucking through them !!!There's a US based seller in FL that I got a few lots of BARTs from, Next something, Next Gen semi? Anyway, smooth transaction and they measured out good(not pre-picked).
38As are getting a little harder/more expensive to come by. If you are looking to get them before Thanksgiving...
I was buying boxes of BARTs from Russia before the current conflict. Bummed I can't still do that. They were so much cheaperThere's a US based seller in FL that I got a few lots of BARTs from, Next something, Next Gen semi? Anyway, smooth transaction and they measured out good(not pre-picked).

Yeah. I don't know if the 38As are drying up, due to conflict or due to commercial builders using them/sellers getting hip to commercial builders using them. Wish I'd bought a box earlier but I'll be alright.I was buying boxes of BARTs from Russia before the current conflict. Bummed I can't still do that. They were so much cheaper
Helpful info: If you see more than one item you want from Alexer1/SOVCOM, put them in your cart and then request combined shipping. You will have to commit to buying them, but don't pay for them yet. Wait 12-24 hours, and Oleg will respond with a combined shipping price that's less than the sum of the individual shipping costs. It's worth doing. Otherwise, they don't see that things are going to the same person and thus don't combine shipping.Thanks guys, now I’m on Ukrainian NPN hunt
Thanks for all the advice. Got to be honest, I’m a little nervous to drop on something incase a shed load are out of toleranceHelpful info: If you see more than one item you want from Alexer1/SOVCOM, put them in your cart and then request combined shipping.

Out of tolerance isnpart of playing the game.Thanks for all the advice. Got to be honest, I’m a little nervous to drop on something incase a shed load are out of tolerance
Ruskies, I thought that was a British saying I’m all set up with my peak atlas. Suppose if I buy 100 I can pass some on ! What range do you find the 38s tend to be ?Out of tolerance isnpart of playing the game.
Stick to the recommended part numbers from the recommended sellers and you'll have good yields. Ruskies used germanium transistors into the 70s-80s, when the rest of the world moved to Si. That's 2xieh longer than the West. They got pretty good at making them. 38s are particularly tight in my experience. Off memory, half of my last batch were sub-20uA leakage. You will need a way to measure them as some will be too leaky though. Or, just audition until you find ones that sound good.
Of the top of my head, fwiw, most were 40-65 with a handful up near/just over 100.Ruskies, I thought that was a British saying I’m all set up with my peak atlas. Suppose if I buy 100 I can pass some on ! What range do you find the 38s tend to be ?
Thanks man, they work out roughly the same price as what I get 1306s a piece for from Langrex. Oh, what to do !!!This seller has some sample MP38A measurements using a TC1 tester, so you'll have a good idea of what you're receiving. I bought 100 GT310B transistors from him last year; all of them were in spec, and the sample measurements on the listing that I bought were representative of the average transistor that I received.
