INDUSTRO 2N1471 Vintage PNP Germanium Transistor
$29.99
Original INDUSTRO 2N1471 PNP germanium transistor housed in the classic TO-5 metal can package. This vintage germanium device has been professionally tested and verified functional with strong gain, proper germanium junction characteristics, and leakage levels consistent with healthy vintage germanium construction. Ideal for vintage radio restoration, collector inventory, early semiconductor projects, audio experimentation, and historical electronics applications.
HISTORICAL NOTE:
The 2N1471 belongs to the early germanium transistor era that helped power portable radios, commercial electronics, and industrial equipment before silicon devices became dominant. Germanium transistors remain desirable among restorers, collectors, and audio enthusiasts due to their unique electrical characteristics and historical significance.
