Hey guys, I have a few questions about germanium transistors. I have never worked with germanium transistors before and was wondering if some of you could help me out with a few questions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
First, should I solder them or socket them? If I solder them, what's a good iron temperature? Should I use a alligator clip for a heatsink? If I socket them, what sockets should I get? I am pretty sure that they are TO-1 package transistors but I'm not exactly sure. I will provide an image.
